I started Big Hexy Balls in August 2013. I was working on it again at the beginning of the month - unpicking some bad quilting and quilting it up differently.
It went well and I thought I had finished it - or maybe not!
I sat on it for a while and then I just decided it was finished and I should bind it after all.
It was all going to be bound in Kona Ocean just like the background. Then I decided to add a little detail where the hexies met the binding....

I was all set to finish off the binding by hand but I just thought how boring that would be. So I finished it off by top stitching it on the machine.
And now it is all finished indeed...

It was fiddly but I think it worked well enough. It adds another bit of interest to a fairly minimalist quilt.
