I finished my hexagon panel for the Green Tea and Sweet Beans quilt, I decided to English Paper Piece this panel because I'm faster at it and it is easier to get all those neat points!
I love the totally random (yet lovingly chosen) mix of fabrics:
I also completed all the Orange Peel blocks:

I'm so happy I decided to mix the modern fabrics with the 30s repro ones, I really love how they play together!

You seem to be flying through these blocks. It's great to see you having fun mixing fabrics.
These are looking lovely! I too enjoy mixing fabrics up ...it ends up being a great mix of vintage & modern, and heaps to look at! Linda
It's looking lovely and a great mix of fabrics.
What a great mix of fabrics you have there Lucy-this is going to be a super quilt. Love the retro themes going on. Your stitching is incredibly neat-it's looking brilliant!

Love the hexagon panel! It is such a happy mix! You have some of that sweet 'cherry' print! Is that an Ayumi?
You are making such great progress- one day I WILL start. Just signed up for 2 more appliqué QAL as I decided I needed to improve my technique. Your hexagons are really cute and accurate too. Love the Cherry one.
It's looking gorgeous and love the mix of fabrics :)
How many more blocks have you got left? You seem to have done loads!
I love your selection of fabrics - such pretty blocks :-)
Looking good. x
Love the hexies and the blocks!
Really like your fabric choice, can never find similar.....maybe I just don't have your eye! x
Looking so pretty!
I love this! Your quilt will be magnificent! This quilt is on my list of quilts...but I think all of her patterns are on my list! Too many quilts and not enough time! Or energy!
Gorgeous!
Ohh! I'm making this quilt at the moment too but i love your fabric choices! I'm using Katy Jones new line mixed in with some cotton+steel etc. I need to get on with it, its kind of a darker wintery fabric selection and as soon as spring happens i'll be a WIP til the autumn again!

I love hexagons but your orange peels are even better! Nice!
