Forget Me Not Sew Along

Follow along with me as I make a quilt using my latest fabric range, Forget Me Not. For this quilt I am using 1″ Hexagons. My whole office is getting involved and we would love for you to join in and create your own quilt. This quilt can be made with any fabrics, but if you wish to use Forget Me Not, there are starter packs available through Patchwork with Busyfingers. Purchase your pack here.

Today I am showing you how to create the centre piece. I have used a navy print for the centre of the hexagon flower and fussy-cut the beige lace print for the outer hexagons.

I hope you will join me next time to continue to build from the centre Hexagon Flower. Eventually you will have a larger centre piece as shown below.

I look forward to taking part in this SAL. I was wondering how much background fabric will be needed? I will look at my fabrics here. I tend to have reds of `French General` line. I do love your `Forget Me Not` range but want to start today! I have enjoyed getting my `Just Like a Jigsaw` collection. Happy Stitching.

Hi Clare,

I am glad you are excited to follow along with this project.

If you are referring to the cream fabric I have used, it is a Riley Blake Cream on Cream basic that is readily available. In terms of a backing fabric, there is no specific quantity yet as this quilt will continue to grow throughout the coming weeks. It would also depend on how big you decide to make your project.

I hope this helps.

Sue
