Hexagons

I've never really been interested in the hexagon quilting fashion. Not sure why, it just never grabbed me....until now.

I've been following Want it, Need it, Quilt!, and I found out about the Inchy Hexagon Flower Swap. Normally this wouldn't interest me, except for the ever so cute hexagon flower with owls on it that QuiltJane received.



I almost want to sign up (they're taking a few new people), but I really don't think I should commit to anything else so far this year... especially considering I've never done english paper piecing before. Maybe I should make some cute ones for myself and get some practice in, then next year I can join in one of these swaps.

Might add a packet of the paper templates to my shopping list for the next craft show.
