Batik Mosaic

 
I have 700 basted hexagons prepared for my Batik Mosaic quilt. I will need almost 900 to make the 72-inch square finished size that I want. Getting closer! I hunted through my stash of fat quarters, and bought a few pieces to round out the selection of fabrics. I forgot to count how many different fabrics I am using, but I think it is between 25 and 30. The hexagons are 1-1/2 inches on each side (3 inches wide at the middle). I'm going for a scrappy, unplanned look by arranging the different fabrics randomly when I join the hexagons together. I want to finish basting all that I will need and then I will start whip stitching the hexagons together, small sections at a time.

Welcome!

I have recently started making quilts with English Paper Piecing, and I love it! I'm looking forward to sharing my progress with you all.
