Enough.

October 10, 2012 by Michele

 

One vat of sweat.
3 sore fingers.
15 hexagons per day (on average).
138 consecutive days.
2061 hexagons.
That’s enough 3/4″ hexies to complete the quilt top.
Can anyone say: “Eep”?!

    I am in awe. Absolute awe! And I will be in even greater awe when you are on the other side of removing all 2061 bits of paper!
