Mystery Hexagon Quilt Part 11

Welcome to the Part 11 of our Mystery Hexagon Quilt!

We are almost at the end of the Mystery Hexagon Quilt with only 4 more parts to complete!

We started with 17 parts, this included the introduction and the 2 parts each of rounds 7 and 8 to give us 17 parts in total!

This fortnight we will be making the first row of each of the 4 corners.

These are the Hexagon blocks we will be making

Use the diagram below as a guide for joining these 4 Rows to the Centre Part.

Watch the orientation of your rows for placement.

It is easier for lining up the rows in the

correct place if you add the Dark hexagons to the top and bottom first.

Here is my quilt so far

I chose to make my hexagon block 1 with 2 different dark fabrics.

My light fabrics are also all gold fabrics. I have used this gold fabric as a light throughout my quilt.
