For my second entry into the Blogger’s Quilt Festival I decided to go with ‘the vineyard’. It’s a table runner I made last month which I got a lot of positive feedback on. As I enter this into the ‘Appliqué’ category I want to give another a shout out to Modern Handcraft who came up with this new twist on hexi application.
I think the way the hexies are placed makes them look a little like grapes of a vine, thus I chose to name it ‘the vineyard’. It also turned out to go exeptionally well with drinking red wine, just so you know ;-)
Make sure to check out all the other beautiful quilts entered into the festival in the varisou categories. Voting on your favourites starts on November 1st.

Danke liebe Deborah, ich bin auch ganz glücklich über die Farben, die wurden ja maßgeblich vom IKEA Vorhang bestimmt ;-)
This is exceptionally beautiful and I will defo vote for you:-) I never used to like table runners mich but this one I can picture in my home! xx
I love this Vicky, and I’m happy you entered it to the festival! x Teje
Thank you Teje. I think it was on your blog where I first heard of the festival, so thank you for that, too =)
Wow! This is gorgeous! I especially love what you did with the binding :) ❤️
Thank you Lisa! It was my first time using a scrappy binding and I will definitely do this more often now, I think it usually adds a certain spark to any quilt!
Very nice! Thanks for sharing about this technique. It gives great texture & dimension.
Thank you Jane. It’s also a very simple way to use hexagons up and it doesn’t involve any handstitching!
I love this! I may have to investigate this technique. I love the finished result. Congrats.
Yes, please try it out Sonia, it’s super easy and so many cool quilts have been made using it =)
