This will be a good record of my stash and depending how big it turns out I may hang it on the wall. I have no idea of the size this will be - may become clearer once I start sewing them altogether - lol !
Now these are done I will have to decide how they are all going together - I have a few ideas but that may change.
My next project is my SSCS organised again by the lovely Chookyblue. I know what I'm making and have chosen fabrics. The pattern for this was in a box on my shelf. I got the boxes containing my patterns out and within a minute look what happened.

He is so nosey - lol !!
Actually I have just had an idea. As I passed my 200th post a couple of posts back I think I will have a little competition. If you would like to guess how many hexagons I have in my pile ( I haven't counted yet ) I will also make a little present to be posted out the same time as my SSCS gift to the person who gets nearest. So if you fancy an extra Christmas present feel free to have a go. I will let you know who came closest on my next post - a week or so.
I have a couple of quilts I have been working on that are nearly ready to be quilted. I had this for my birthday almost a year ago and have hardly used it.

Maybe I will be brave and actually use it and you may even see a finished quilt very soon. The trouble ss it is very choosey about which thread it likes so I have had a lot of frustration with it. However after a lot of experimenting I think I have found a thread to use. In fact you can see a bit of my practise piece along with the hexagons. So wish me luck - I'm going in - lol xxx

Good luck! Once you find the right thread you'll be sewing up a storm.
I'm going to guess 237 hexies.
I am so bad at guessing how many of anything there is in a pile. LOL But I will guess there are 298 hexagons in that pile. Have fun. Winona

I have heard that that model is picky with thread.
I am going to guess 432 hexies. And wish you luck putting them "together" in any sort of pattern....

I am guessing about 225..and I can't wait to see what your quilts is going to look like.
I'm thinking there are about 214 hexagons there.
Good luck with that machine.
Luckily mine is not fussy, or else I wouldn't sew at all. It's old and probably just happy to get any attention at all!
