Take 2 on the 40th birthday gift I referred to in my last post. The first attempt was made following the hexy table runner pattern and instructions in Sew Hip Mag. Dismal. Sewing all those bloody seams together was just a pain in the neck. I quickly threw that on the recycle pile (home to all failed attempts at creating something).
This is attempt two, where I scrapped the magazine pattern, and made my own half hexagon template (after reading about them here). Much happier.
I'm part way through some border stitching in red, then I'll attach some ticking for the backing. Currently measures 149cm by 49cm.
