June is flying by! Soon it will time to ease out of blue and into aqua. Fortunately, it won't have to be a harsh jump into July, but rather an nice gentle shift to the shades of blue that lean more toward green. I spent our most recent car trip to Virginia putting some hexies together in the car. I think these are the last blocks needed for the light blue row.
Next, it looks like a few more of dark blue, pink and purple will finish it all off. I would have thought that I could get more done in a 14 hour drive, but we leave early when it is still dark, and then when the sun comes up I take a turn behind the wheel. They call it long slow sewing for a reason I suppose. Still, this hexie project is getting pretty close, and it would be great to get the rows together and start adding some sort of borders. I am thinking of some background and then some sort of brown and black frame around that.
How are your blues coming along? The linky tool is below, please share with us all.

So eye-catching! Impressive and inspiring! I truly believe the patience required to complete a hexie quilt should allow the creator a life's worth of free fabric!
Your hexie blocks look amazing! So much work put into that project. Aqua seems like the perfect color for July, when we're all craving a dip in the pool or ocean. Have a wonderful Saturday, Angela!
It might be a slow progress type of project but it really is coming along nicely. It's always good to have something going on in your hands so you can truly enjoy the rides, both the car ride and the ride of your project! Have a restful weekend.
Your hexie project is coming along nicely. It is slow going, but you've been making steady progress.
Your rainbow hexie quilt is a masterpiece!
The picture showing your design wall is amazing! ;^)
Aqua is a perfect July choice for those of us in the northern hemisphere. It brings to mind days at the beach or poolside. really appreciate you taking the time each week to provide this forum and share various potential RSC blocks to explore.
Love your hexies, it's so beautiful!
Absolute gorgeous! I'm not sure I have the patience.
Your hexie rainbow is coming together beautifully!
Blue leaning toward green is the PERFECT color for counteracting the heat of summer. It's also one of my favorites. Thanks, Angela!
