This is an advanced beginner project for you that gives you the opportunity to try out these beautiful fabrics and make a simple scrappy half hexie quilt top.

Skills Learned: This project will teach you how to use a template, cut pieces on an angle, and see how multiple pieces of fabric can be used in a unique, scrappy pattern. You will learn how to make a quilt top with confidence!

Skill Level: Advanced Beginner

Finished Size: 48” x 56” (121.92cm x 142.24cm)

Fabric Requirements:

1 Jelly Roll or (40) 2.5” (6.35cm) x WOF strips - Joy of Color Fabric Collection. I used all the SKUs and cut 2-3 strips from each fabric:

Backing - 3.5 yd (3.20m)

Binding - 0.5 yd (.46m) at 2.5" (6.35cm) strips

Note: Instructions for applying the backing and binding are not included in this tutorial.

Equipment needed:

  • De-wrinkle spray/starch and ironing station
  • Cutting mat and rotary cutter
  • Ruler
  • Fabric marking pen (optional)
  • Clips or pins (optional)
  • Half Hexie template (optional)
    **if you don’t have the template, create a paper template using Diagram 1 as a guide.
    **this pattern can use Jelly Rolls, Yardage, or Scraps

   DIAGRAM 1

To Note Before You Start:

  • Starch and press all fabric before cutting
  • WOF = Width of Fabric
  • Pattern assumes WOF to be 40”
  • All seam allowances are 1⁄4”
  • Press all seams open to reduce bulk in corners of the blocks

General Instructions:

Carefully read all instructions before beginning

There is no margin for error on these fabric requirements! You may need additional yardage or Jelly Rolls for directional fabric or if you plan to fussy-cut

Fabric requirements are listed for any 40” WOF quilting fabric


Instructions:
