Gentle Gems - 2021 Hexies of the Month

You have already heard that I had a monthly project planned for 2021, but it was not a normal "Block of the Month" quilt. That's because it is comprised of HEXAGONS! So let me introduce you to

Gentle Gems
2021 Hexies of the Month Wall Hanging

 

Gentle Gems:

  • is designed to use up your scraps.
  • has hexagons which require only small pieces of fabric for the backing/borders and appliqués.
  • is portable - no sewing machine required.
  • is full of appliqué and embroidery.
  • has 22 hexagons, so the programme will run from January - November, with two hexagon patterns sent each month.
  • has designs each month which are complete in themselves.
  • can be stitched together to make a wall-hanging or to form whatever shape you choose. 
  • could give you the opportunity to try out a few new embroidery stitches.
  • measures 12¾ in x 33½ in (32 cm x 85 cm) and the individual hexagons are 4½ in x 5¼ in (11.5 cm x 13.5 cm).


I decided to use the word "Gentle" in the title, because it seems to me that in these uncertain times, doing some quiet, soothing stitching as in this project, helps bring a sense of peace and rest. Then, don't you think these sweet hexagons are like "Gems", each one shining like a little jewel?


The 22 hexagon patterns will be available at a cost of just $1.50 each, and I think you will agree that this is a bargain. 
However, if you sign up for the whole design, you will receive MORE THAN 50% OFF, with a cost of just $15 for all 22 hexagon patterns.

Thank you to my kind blog readers who expressed their care for me following last week's post. I really appreciate the love and concern you have shown. Unfortunately, I have not been able to reply by email to everyone as some of you are "No Reply-comment bloggers" which does not allow me to see your email address. I have responded instead to your comment underneath that blog post. Thank you to all who have said they will pray for me - wow, that blows my mind and fills me with hope!
