When I made the Science Fair hexagon quilt top in July I was already thinking of the possibilities of making something similar in different fabrics.
In my stash I had a jelly roll of fabric that I had purchased last November when visiting in Seattle. At the princely sum of US$7.50 it seemed like a bargain to hard to leave behind.
What to do with the jelly roll once I brought it home was another story but it did occur to me that I might use it to make a hexagon quilt.
The 2.5 inch strips from the jelly roll lend themselves to this sort of project really well.
I soon came to realise there would not be enough fabric from the roll to complete the project so I added some soft pink fabric which I had purchased in a stash busting exercise a while back and with this combination I am making good progress.
This is not the final arrangement. I am pinning the blocks to the design board as I go. No doubt changes will be made before I am through.

I adore hexies and a jelly roll makes them come together pretty quickly.
Love this one and cant wait to see it come together.
