If you love the playfulness of hexagons but don't want to create a full quilt, how about a hexagon bedecked bag?

Today we'll show different methods for basting hexes, different approaches to applying them, and different styles of decorative stitching.

We'll also explore adding ribbons and bling, so when you're ready, you have the creative inspiration and skills needed to sew a little hexagon happiness.

[Upbeat music] Hi.

You're watching the 48th season of “Love of Quilting.” I'm Angela Huffman, - And I'm Sara Gallegos.

- And Sara You have just a riot of possibilities in front of us.

Right.

I cannot wait to dive in.

I love everything about it.

It's always fun just to kind of make a creative mess right?

- Yeah.

For sure.

So we're kind of talking about this bag that I created, and we're going to see what we get through here, because I wanted to share a bunch of different ways that you can use your traditional English paper piecing hexes.

-Nice.

We're going to play with heavyweight threads.

We're going to play with some decorative ribbons.

And the end result, you know, becomes a bag.

Yay.

- Kind of fun, right?

- Yeah.

So I do I have found for many, many years I said I would never hand sew.

It was just not my thing.

But I have actually found that I really kind of enjoy English paper piecing, - Yeah.

but I'm not certain that I'm ready to commit to an entire quilt yet.

- Yeah.

Maybe a very small quilt.

So I thought it would be kind of a fun way to use my little English paper piecing pieces on just a bag, because then you can kind of get that little hand fix, you know, it's the stuff that you can do when you're watching TV at night or maybe riding in an airplane.

A lot of times that's when I'm doing this.

And you don't need a gazillion of them to do something really fun on a bag with it.

- Yeah.

So we've got the completed bag there and a few things to kind of point out.

We've got like a really large Hexi, which we're going to talk about.

There's a ribbon attached to the top of the bag.

There's ribbon sewn onto the webbing of the strap.

And then we've got, like, a really fun little bobble there for the closure.

So we'll talk about all those as we go.

Cool.

- Nice.

- Yeah.

So when I started off to make this project, I had initially wanted to use the smaller size hexes that I've been playing with, but the fabric that I picked just didn't quite fit.

So I'm going to kind of show you a couple different options for your hexes.

So the first thing that I've got here is just a hand stitched hexi, and we'll talk about how to do that in just a moment.

And this is a little bit smaller size.

And for this background here, all I did was just kind of place them on there and pin it in place before I attached all of the hexagons, I just straight line quilted the background of the bag just for some kind of extra texture, which is kind of fun.

And then on each of the little hexes, I just basically stitched a wagon wheel, - Yeah.

- you know, it was like just kind of around in little little triangles just to hold it into place.

So one kind of option.

Right.

So now with my fabrics, these were a little bit too large.

The fabrics that I picked to use that smaller size hexi.

So instead I opted for a larger template.

All right.

There.

Yeah it's very big.

Yeah.

Kind of cool.

And with this kind of gave me the opportunity to be able to play with fussy cutting.

So I measured the size of the kind of like the diameter I guess, of the hexagon.

And I cut my pieces a bit larger, a little short here, but it's going to work because you got a tiny little bit to turn over on that edge.

But it was a nice, you know, just enough to be able to to press under.

And then you get to kind of play with how do you want to position your focal print.

So here I've got these little puffins.

- Cute.

- Right.

Kind of fun and you can kind of just play with getting it straight.

And then I just I sort of tried to replicate it on each one.

I kind of did one as a tester and tried to replicate it.

So a couple different options for how we stitch these down.

Now the most traditional is to hand stitch.

And somewhere here I hope there it is.

- Yeah there it is.

There's my little needle.

And you could even put like a little bit of glue right on to the template and then put it on your little.

Just to hold it in place.

Focal point.

- Yeah.

- Just to hold it in place.

- Yeah.

And then we're just going to kind of come through and turn those edges under.

And we're just going to just a real large, easy running stitch.

We had a guest a long time ago named Felicia, who taught me how to do the English paper piecing, and I was so excited about it.

I had so much fun with it.

But I've never done like a full project, so we're just going to kind of run through until we get to the corner.

Well, I love that you can take a motif and really spotlight it with, the hexagons.

Exactly.

You can really position it.

So you just folded it over.

I just folded it over itself.

- And I notice it's not like it' a quarter inch seam or anything.

You're just folding it over.

- Correct.

I am sure there are people that make this much more precise than I do, - Yeah.

But the end goal is truly just to hold it all in place.

So you're just going to keep going all the way around and catch all of those edges.

So again, just like that really long basting stitch.

I have a friend who she keeps some in her purse, and if she is waiting for a train to go by, Oh there you go.

- She'll pull them out and she'll do it while She's waiting at a train or waiting at the doctor's office.

She's always got a little bag of hexagons with her at all times.

Soccer mom here, I've got them while I wait for kids from practice.

Or I definitely can't do it while watching soccer, though, because my daughter's a goalie and it's like, very, very exciting.

- Yeah.

- I would be I would be stabbing myself.

Okay.

So you're just going to keep going around you.

You get the idea, right?

But there is a way to make this a little bit faster, which frankly is what I like.

Same idea, glue stick.

So instead of going around by hand, I'm going to kind of position that so that I'm happy.

I feel like I'm cutting off the tip of this little nose.

Little nose.

Maybe we'll go to this guy, see if we've got a little more space.

Yeah.

And then I'm going to use my glue stick just to fold that over on itself.

Oh my gosh.

So much faster.

Yeah.

So you know me, I kind of like to make things as quick as possible.

I'm a little bit of a speedy girl, so this is sort of my more of my style, although harder to do when you're sitting at the train tracks like guess.

- Yeah, I guess so, yeah.

And I've seen people use, like wooden chopsticks or cuticle sticks or something to kind of because you'll get some of that glue in your fingers and then life gets a little sticky.

Especially when you have your nails done for TV.

- Yeah.

Got to be careful.

- Now, but you're not going to leave the paper in?

- No.

At some point We take the paper out?

- Yes.

Absolutely.

- Okay.

All right.

Because you had already done that with the small hexes we were working on.

The, - Correct.

- On the back.

So there we've got all the way around.

Oh he's so cute.

- Very cute.

- Yes.

And then you just want to fuze this really well, like, I ironed this right through the paper template so that it really trained all those edges to stay for me.

And here's one that I've already I've already ironed.

And then I can kind of open it back up to sneak that piece of paper back out.

Got it.

And it remembers.

- And you can reuse the paper too.

Right?

Yes, you can reuse it.

It remembers those edges.

You can press it again and then you've got what you need.

Very nice.

- Nice.

So then somehow we've got to get this to stick to the background fabric.

And okay, this is where we're like, all right now what do we do?

I want this to stay in place.

I don't want to have to pin the whole thing.

So what I ended up doing was I just cut squares of a fusible product that I could then peel the paper off.

Got a big Ole piece of sticky there, and now I can place these wherever I want for my project.

And if you change your mind, you could peel it off.

- You could peel it off and put it in a different positi Yeah, and that's exactly what I did, is I just kind of like auditioned where I wanted all my little pieces to lay together.

That's one more edge I need to do there and then you can fuse it once you're satisfied with the placement.

So you're not sewing them to each other?

No.

- No.

- That is what we would do with traditional.

But you know, I'm the machine girl, so I want to know how I can do everything possible with the sewing machine, especially if I can somehow incorporate some fun decorative stitches, which is what we're going to do.

Awesome.

Okay, so now that's one way.

Well, two ways, I guess, of getting all your perfect little templates.

Yeah.

What's going on here?

- Here's another idea.

There are also hexagon shaped die cutting templates.

And with the die cutting machine I can actually fuze a double sided paper, web or fusible web to my fabric and then run it through my die cutting machine.

And then it's just ready to put onto the fabric.

- Nice.

So that was what I did with all of these.

My die cutting template has large and small.

I thought we would play with the large, but I thought it was kind of fun to show this.

So with the bag that I created, I just sort of worked with the same fabric line and some coordinates that went with it.

But for these I pulled an ombre.

Oh very fine nice.

- Isn't that fun?

Yeah.

So this is one piece of fabric.

Exactly.

- It goes from the dark purple.

Yeah.

And all the pieces that I cut out.

And then on the other side it goes towards the yellow.

Very nice.

- Isn't that cool?

- Yeah.

I love ombré fabrics for a project like this because it takes a lot of the brain work out of it for me.

Just like easy to figure out.

Okay, so now we get to play.

So we're just going to peel off the paper.

And either size both sizes.

You're not - You can do whatever you want.

- Okay.

We I've pressed the center line.

That's going to become the bottom of the bag.

So you can kind of just like go wherever you want.

And do you want them to touch.

- Yes.

And can I stair step them.

- And that is up to you.

You could make them touch or not touch.

It just depends on what kind of a stitch you want to use on your machine.

Yeah, you can stair step them.

It's a little craft project and the ombré too, because it has kind of a directional print.

You could also choose what direction you want it to go in that in that way as well.

- Yes.

So many options.

Well and two the ombre You know, all of the oh he's not going to fit.

Well, can you just kind of sit in there.

It can be whatever you want - Okay.

- It's play time.

It's a craft project.

I think I think I'm, I'm bogged down by rules in my head.

So.

- I was just going to kind of touch on that.

You know I think it's important to do projects every once in a while that do kind of force us to just like, chill out a minute.

I will say though, this little channel that I created, that would be a cute place for decorative stitching.

Just saying.

- You're right.

- Just saying.

I feel.

Like we need a space on there to.

Just But he's too close to that guy.

Grab another yellow.

- Okay, I'll grab another yellow.

I'm going to put him up here though.

I want him to touch.

No I don't okay.

And you can make any choice you want.

And again you know we can reposition it all.

Yeah.

- We're not tied to anything.

And so the bottom of the bag, is it going to be, like a flat, like a boxed.

- I did box mine.

- Boxed it.

- You kind of see on the one next to you there.

So not a sharp crease.

- Correct So maybe - Yeah and the ombre because all of the colors are going to work together, so you get the variety without the heartache and and concern about will all these colors look good together?

Will it work?

Will it not work?

It's going to be great.

- Yeah.

And you know, it's what a fun project too for with kiddos.

Yeah.

Wouldn't this be fun to do - Yeah.

- If you're trying to introduce littles to sewing?

- Yeah.

Give them a fun little project for your littles like this.

They're like stickers.

They're like stickers.

- Just peel them off.

I love that you.

So when you fuzed it, did you hit it with an iron on the fusible web and then send it through the dye cutter machine?

- Correct.

So I fuzed the fusible web to the backside of the fabric, and then ran it right through the cutting machine.

Most of your cutting machines will handle about six layers, but with the fusible I call a four.

So two fabrics, two fusible.

So just kind of like a double layer like this.

I don't try to do six layers with all that.

Does it - It's a lot going on.

make the blades in the cutter gummy like, do you have to.

Nope.

- No.

- Nope.

It works great.

All right.

We got another little spaced.

Another spaced out guy.

Yeah.

- Okay.

What do you think?

Should we go for it?

I like it.

- Yeah.

So then you would just keep going as far as you want.

You can add as many pieces as you want.

Okay.

We need one more so that it's balanced because the symmetry is going to bug me if we don't.

We can't have that.

- We have to be balanced.

We must be balanced.

- Okay.

All right.

Done.

I love it.

- I love all the colors too.

They look like sherbet to me.

- Isn't that fun?

I know, just kind of, like, fun to play with.

So - Now do we hit it with an iron?

Now we do want to iron it.

- Okay.

This is where we want to actually iron it on.

Let me grab my little ribbons out of the way here.

There you go.

So just carefully take it over there.

So you'd want to look at the directions on whatever fusible product you're using.

Because what they will have opinions about the length of time, whether you need steam, whether you don't need steam.

- Right.

And I would suggest using some kind of protective A press cloth.

- Something on here.

Yeah.

That is the nice thing about it being the exact size being cut with the die cutter.

You do not have any excess gooeyness - Yeah.

- sticking out from the edges of the fabric to damage the iron.

Whereas with my little square method I used, I did find in a couple of spots, I had to be really careful that I had a little extra sticking out.

- Oh.

To not get that on my iron or my ironing surface.

Because that's the mess.

- Yes.

Okay, I think I did it.

Got I'm pretty well fuzed.

We'll know if they fall off I guess.

Well we're going to stitch them next so it's all good.

Okay good.

Okay.

So now for the stitching.

We've got some choices.

So if you could grab that bag right there and we'll talk about what that is in a little bit.

But here we've done tight packed hexes all over the whole entire thing.

Oh I see them now okay.

And use a decorative stitch to just like go over the whole entire thing.

It takes away from the definition of the hexagons, I think.

But it does like make your eye go everywhere.

So if you're not perfect, it's okay.

And this is just using, quilt piecing thread.

What we've got here to play with is actually a 12 weight thread.

So you see, it's a lot chunkier.

So yummy.

The color.

Love that.

Yes.

These threads are so much fun to play with.

I like them for heavy topstitching.

They're fun in the bobbin.

I use them all the time in the loopers on my sergers.

One of my favorite threads to play with there.

So just anything that's a little bit heavier.

You've got some fun ideas, but we do have to make sure that we've got a couple of different settings with the sewing machine.

One of them is the type of needle that we use.

So being a 12 weight thread like this, we need a much larger needle and we want a topstitching needle.

So this is the size 90 topstitching needle.

It's got a deeper scarf going down the shaft of the needle.

It's even got a little bit larger eye so that you can easily get that thread through, I say easily, it's not super easy to get that thread.

And don't use the - Correct.

You have a machine with a threader on it.

Your needle threader is not going to work.

- Right.

I tried and it just kind of frayed the thread.

And you could potentially do damage to your needle threader.

So we always want to just like stay away from anything dangerous with the needle threader.

I did find that it was easier to actually thread the needle before I inserted it into the machine, but a needle threader could really help here.

And you've got to go from like the front toward the back so that you can get into the machine in the right direction.

So just a couple of thoughts.

Use a needle threader or just do it before you actually insert it into the machine.

You definitely need that size 90 topstitch.

And you would thread the whole machine.

- Oh yeah.

just get to the needle - And then pop it in there.

and then put in your needle.

Don't put it in there first, then try to thread the machine.

That would be, - Yeah.

- You know, a little extra brainpower.

You'd do that one time.

- You could do it.

And then you wouldn't do it again.

Yeah, it would just be challenging.

So now we get to play with some different stitches.

And you know, I just love playing with decorative stitches.

They make me feel really happy.

And what I've got here is just like a really narrow zigzag stitch.

And I played with several different ones that will kind of use here, and I like to turn on that little needle beam, because then I can see exactly where I'm going to start.

And we've got some choices.

We could go right down the middle of the two and maybe go with a little bit wider zigzag and let it capture both sides of the Hexi.

So maybe we'll start there.

And I've got on a clear foot that's going to allow me to really see exactly where I'm stitching.

So we're going to just drop that foot down and just sew and I can see now that it's stitching that that zigzag is a little bit narrow.

It's not quite catching both sides.

So I'm just going to widen it out a little bit.

There we go.

And now it's going to go right down the center of those two hexagons.

And the foot itself also has a center mark as well.

It does.

- So there's a lot of information on the foot.

It's very helpful.

The center mark you've also got like horizontal lines.

So you know exactly where that needle's dropping.

So we could just turn the corner and just go in another direction.

And I'm stopping with that needle down.

And I want it to stop so that it's on the outside edge of my hexi.

And then when I pivot, I can come on down the other side and it gives me a real nice edge.

And so you have the machine set up so that when it goes needle down, the foot rises up just enough so that you can pivot.

Exactly.

You could use a knee lift to do the same thing, or just lift up the pressing foot with your hand.

- Sure can.

And I don't know if you noticed this, but like when I'm stitching this way, I'm not bossing my fabric around.

I'm letting the machine kind of feed and do its job.

Yeah.

- I overshot it.

One stitch there because I was yappin.

So, you know, - Yeah.

- You gotta pay attention to where it's going, okay.

We're almost to the edge here.

We're going to stop on the edge.

Perfect.

So pivoting you need to stop off the fabric on to the background fabric, and then you won't have that extra.

I think it works nice.

- That extra stitch.

Yeah.

And are you using like a tacking stitch or something to do your stops and starts.

- This is just like a narrow little zigzag And you can, you can do a lock.

So we could do a lock right now.

So there's my lock.

I would recommend a lock in place, not a forward backward forward style lock.

And then the other thing that we've got to do here is we can't really use the thread cutter.

The sometimes the thread cutter will cut it, sometimes it doesn't because it's got to pull that really heavy 12 way to the underside.

So I typically lock my stitches in, pull it out and then just manually cut it away.

Now.

- So a 12 weight is a is going to be a very thick.

It's super thick.

We talk about piecing with a 50 weight 12 weights much bigger.

- Correct.

Yes.

Piecing with a 50 weight is a lot thinner threads.

So you would need it doesn't cover quite as well.

Yeah.

- Practice on a scrap.

You know I'm standing up and sewing says a little harder to get it perfect.

- Yeah.

So there's one choice.

Another stitch that I thought was kind of fun to use was a triple straight stitch, where it goes over itself a few times and let's do it over here on this guy.

And I stretch the stitch length out to a four.

So it's going to go forward, backward, forward with every single stitch.

So again you want to kind of practice forward backwards forward because you need to stop on the completion of that triple.

So again we're going to go forward backward forward.

And you could turn the speed down on your machine too.

If your machine has that capability.

- Absolutely.

It'll help you stay focused and counts a little easier.

Oh it makes that 12 weight look even heavier than it is.

Right.

And it does it without breaking.

It's okay to do a triple stitch with the 12 weight, because we have that topstitching needle in there.

One too far.

- I like that one.

to forward, backward, forward.

One too far.

That's okay.

We're going to I'm going to just back up on that one.

Oh this is a hard technique to do while you're chatting with a friend.

- Sorry.

Am I distracting you?

- Not at all.

It's real life.

Right.

I'm going to end up burying that little off stitch.

There we go, there we go.

So we'll come around for backward forward.

Good.

Forward.

Backward.

Forwards.

We'll get around this little hexagon.

I could see this if you had a variegated thread too.

That'd be yummy.

And there's so many lovely stitches on the machine to play with.

- Yep.

Okay, I'm satisfied with that.

So let's lift that up and then.

Another type of stitch that's fun for a technique like this is one that's going to go a lot of side side to side motion.

So a lot of times you'll find those.

It's more of an heirloom style stitch.

But it does have a lot of like the needle swinging side to side sometimes with little X's.

This is kind of a fun one.

So let's just take a look at that because it's another one that's kind of cute for going around when you've got two that are joining each other.

But you do again, need to kind of get to know the composition of the stitch so that you really know where to stop and pivot.

So I always like to encourage you when you're playing with decorative stitches in an unusual way like this, to make sure that you do a little, practice piece so that you've kind of got the rhythm of the stitch and you know how it's going to behave.

So let's take a peek.

Oh, I like that.

- Yeah, I do to.

Really shows off that thread.

- Why is it called heirloom?

Would it be like for smocking.

Is that why it would called heirloom?

- Yeah.

Heirloom style sewing.

Yeah.

And so it's just an heirloom technique that would be used to bridge two different fabrics together.

A lot of times are maybe two pieces of lace.

- Oh okay.

It's like a bridging stitch.

So one of the techniques that's used for that kind of cool, right?

Yeah.

So one of the other things that I did on this bag was I utilized some decorative ribbons in a couple of different ways.

So first at the very top of the bag and then also to make a custom strap, - Yes.

I thought that would be really fun.

- Yeah.

I love it.

So instead of just having a boring black strap or trying to, you know, fold fabric in a couple of different directions to be able to stitch that down.

I thought it would be really fun just to top stitch - Yeah sure.

- a piece of ribbon to the top.

Now you can use a fusible web to hold that in place.

We're going to just put a few little pins in there, if you don't mind.

-Okay.

While I quickly change out of this heavyweight thread.

And do you want me to go like parallel to the outside of the webbing?

Does that work?

Is there any specific way you want the pins in?

Is that good?

- That's fine.

- Okay, if you had clips, this might be a good place that you could use clips too.

It definitely would be.

Yeah, you could pin either way or use your clips.

It's really just to hold it in place as you stitch it down.

Nothing to fret over.

There are so many ribbons on the market right now too that are just so, beautiful.

- They really are.

They're, a little tiny bit pricey.

So that's where I ended up.

I used kind of a shorter strap.

Just made it like a shoulder bag instead of a crossbody.

So if you want to play with some of those pretty ribbons, but you feel like it's a little cost prohibitive, just do a short strap.

So same thing.

I'm just going to kind of position that, and I'm going to stitch just to the side of it.

I like my ribbon to be just to the side of the edge.

I should say I like my ribbon to be a little bit longer than the strap, because it gives me a little runway to start sewing on, and I'm going to stretch my stitch length out a little bit.

And I'm just trying to stitch as straight as I can.

And you know, the foot that you use helps a ton with this.

That clear foot really helps me to keep going straight.

So you would need a walking foot, for example.

For this.

- You would or would not?

- Would not.

Yeah.

You if you had the right foot on for a walking foot, you surely can.

This machine has a nice dual feed option.

That would feed really nicely to switch that foot over.

It just depends on your machine and how it feeds.

So again, a practice piece.

Really helpful, really helpful.

Well and I like that the projects that you do Sara, it kind of helps us explore maybe places on our machines that we don't wander into very often.

I'm speaking from my my little world.

So.

Let's be honest, sewing machines are expensive, right?

So I kind of feel like it's my little mission in life to help people understand what you can do with all these neat little features that we pay for.

And a lot of this could also be done with a very basic machine.

I've only used a couple of stitches here that you would find even on a basic machine, so it doesn't have to be a super expensive machine.

Yeah some of those utilitarian stitches are also really pretty.

Yeah, for sure.

- Stitches as well.

So here we have one side stitch down.

Look at that.

And I love the pink thread because you just really see it.

Then you would stitch down the other side.

- The other side Then you would construct the bag.

But I wanted to show one more kind of neat little thing that I found.

If you don't feel confident making a bag, there's a really neat little bag that you can purchase that literally is just a piece of felt that you can embellish all of the edges with your pieces.

- There you go.

That is what that guy is.

- This one is the same thing.

Fuse them all on.

- Yeah.

and then you're just sewing the raw edges of the side seams super easy.

And then final thing got to find the right button.

Hard to find buttons.

- Beautiful.

So I went to a thrift shop and I found - Yeah.

just like a little necklace to add on there.

- Yeah.

Pretty cool huh?

- Love it, love it.

Original, unique, and really pretty.

- That's right.

Grab a pencil, tips and other useful information.

Coming up next.

These are from Patsy Rader from Sumner, Nebraska.

She says, when I make templates for projects, I mark the edges with a permanent marker.

It makes it so much easier - Absolutely.

to see where to mark or cut, especially on a busy print.

You kind of did that with that tape.

With tape.

- Yeah.

- Also works.

- Yeah.

- Great idea.

Okay, how do you like this one?

This is Joan Ball, originally a Pontiac, Michigan, but she moved to Baltimore, Maryland.

She has two sewing machines, are the same brand, and can share presser feet.

So she keeps the feet that she uses the most in an ice cube tray for easy access and labels each cube.

It saves a lot of time hunting down the foot that she needs.

They're kind of the perfect size aren't they?

- It really is.

They just fit right in there.

- Nice little organizer.

- Yeah.

This is from Sandi Kingsbury from Billings, Montana.

She says, I only have one table in my sewing room to protect my cutting mat.

I cut a piece of heavy duty plastic the same width as the mat, but a few inches longer.

I fold the edges of plastic under the mat and sometimes use double sided tape for extra hold.

It protects the mat when I'm working with glue or paint, and it easily folds out of the way when I need to cut fabric.

That's a clever idea.

- Very smart.

- I like that.

Very smart.

Okay, here's another fun one.

This is Patsy Raydor of Sumner, Nebraska, and she says, I'm a pinner.

As I pull pins from whatever I'm sewing, I drop them in a jar lid, and when I'm finished, I can just put the pins back in the jar or into her pincushion.

And our producer had a great suggestion.

You could glue a little magnet on there, and it'll grab those pins and hold on to them.

- Yeah.

Very nice.

- Yeah.

Yeah, especially when you accidentally put dump them on the floor.

The magnet does come in handy.

Yeah.

- Grab them all back up again.

Yes.
