Wondering what this is?
It's a smaller version of the Hexie Caddy I made earlier (don't you just love this Kaffe Fassett fabric?)
It's 3/4 of the original size (1.5 " instead of 2"). The tutorial can be found here.
Then I made this block caddy.
As I'm planning to use it as a moveable "design wall" as well, I covered both the inside and the outside with flannel to make it more "sticky". It's about 17 " square, so should be large enough even for the biggest blocks.I never know where to store individual blocks (so far I used an old Pizza box). The idea came to me after I showed some of the girls in my group how to make these cutting mat folders. On one side you have a small cutting mat and on the other a sheet of sandpaper and the outside can also be used as a small ironing board. It's really handy to take along to workshops or group meetings.
And this is the beginning of some Stack and Whack quilts. A couple of friends and I are doing it together as it's always more fun to work and have a chat at the same time, don't you agree? We got the inspiration from here.
That's it from me today. Take care.

I do love the hexie caddy and the fabric is wonderful! I love Stack and Whacks....it is always so fun to see how different they look coming from the same fabric.

Hi Vrenie, great to see you are inspired by one of my quilts. It makes me realize i should bring this quilt to my next posting! Have fun creating the blocks!
One day I will make your hexie caddy! Love, Hilde
Hi again Vreni, Did you follow a tutorial or pattern for the cutting mat folders please? These would make a great project for my quilting group friends and I to do.
Thanks and hugs
