Hit the ground running with this geometric delight. Hexie Square invites quilters to step into the world of hexagons and make a mesmerizing early-intermediate quilt. It’s precut friendly, best used with fat quarters, and it has absolutely no tricky y-seams or paper piecing.

The half-block offset in every other row creates additional eye appeal.

This pattern is part of the family of patterns that Mariana Diaz designed with her new Creative Grids ruler. This 4-1/2 inch Hexie cuts four different shapes, all from strips, and all easy to follow. Shapes include a 4-1/2 inch hexagon, a 4-1/2 inch half hexagon, a 2-1/2 inch triangle, and a 2-1/2 inch diamond shape.

Gather as many flowers into a bunch in your hands: it’s time for Hexie Bunch! Grab your favorite fat quarter bundle or pick from your stash like picking flowers for a bouquet, before stitching it all together in a piece that will last much longer than a wilting plant. Best of all, no y-seams, no paper piecing, and Hexie Bunch is fat quarter friendly. This is a kind of gardening we can all get onboard with! It will last beyond Spring and Summer! This quilt pattern is a great introduction to hexagons.
