Busy cutting out more 1/2 inch hexagons


Before stating the La Passion 1/2 inch hexagon quilt I researched methods of making the shapes and decided to use the freezer paper method.
Cutting out over 17000 hexagons seemed a little daunting so I bought a Fiskars stamp, I already had a box of freezer paper.
I cut two 2” strips of freezer paper and then punched out the shapes, even Chris picked it up and cut some for me, it was so easy.

These shapes are then ironed onto my fabric and I tack around the edge before sewing them together with silk thread.
