I have some hexagons to share with you today! A couple of weeks ago, I made these Hexagon dish towels for the bridal shower for my brother’s wedding. There was a set of green and blue dishtowels on the registry from Crate and Barrel ($12.95 for 4), but the edges were serged and I thought I could come up with something more interesting?
Using vintage linens, I made approximately 80 hexagons (1.5″). I used Pellon Wonder Under to fuse them in random orders on each dish towel. Then I topstitched around each hexagon. I was a little embarrassed about my gift at first, because it’s not a kitchen appliance or tableware, but hopefully it was well-received! It was my first completed hexagon project!
Those are very fun and colorful! I would think anyone would be delighted to show them off in her kitchen! =^..^=
I have my hexis started since seeing this project!!!! Really cute :o)
You can never have too many teatowels, and these are so unique and colourful they will bring them pleasure every time they see them!
I LOVE those dish towels! Oh my gosh what a cute idea!
what fun xx
Very cute.
They are beautiful – they will be loved long after the appliances have started breaking down!
Yay for completed hexie projects. I’ve just started one – 1 down, 106 to go… ;o)
They look really cool! A great use for hexies!! =D
Are you kidding!? These are beautiful and so thoughtful. I think they are great…..gives me ideas. 🙂
These are sew cute 😉
Those tea towels are really cute and fun. Great idea to use some vintage linens too. I would love to get something like this for a gift.
I just learned how to make hexy’s, and I’d say this is an excellent use for them! I’ve been racking my brain trying to figure out how to personalize tea towels for my mom… this is awesome!
I think they look great!
