The only thing better than one epic quilt is a second one! Check out this version of my AMH hex quilt for an explosion of bold prints and marvelous texture.
I’ve been bombarding you with lots of garments, so I thought I’d interrupt regular programming for a quilt break. Just over a year ago, right before we moved to Tennessee, and I’m talking like a week before, I got the urge to make a whole bunch of heart blocks from Cluck, Cluck, Sew’s tutorial. I…
