More Hexagonal Stars

 I am having a lot of fun playing with Hexagonal Stars in Electric Quilt.  I saw a really fun hexagonal layout and knew I needed to use it to design a quilt.  Putting very simple square blocks in a triangle or parallelogram shape can create stunning designs.

Can you guess the "blocks" that were included in this quilt?

The Electric Quilt video tutorial this week will show you how to use and modify one of the hexagonal layouts from the library and then design a 60 degree triangle border to complement the quilt.

I've included some "Quilter's Math" in this video:

• Calculating the size of Hexagon Quilts (the length and the width are typically different)
• Creating 60 degree border blocks

Here is the work sheet used in the video.  Don't worry if you are math adverse.  Just go through it one step at a time (just like working through a quilt pattern).

2+6=Easy Quilt Pattern by On Point Quilter

I am heading off for a retreat this weekend and one of the projects I plan to work on is a quick and easy baby quilt.  My go to pattern is 2+6=Easy.

​This quilt uses two main fabrics and six fat quarters, making fabric selection a breeze.

At 36" wide, the quilt length can vary from 45"-60" depending on the number of rows you use. Make it your way!

Happy quilting.
