Robin, you are an excellent teacher. Thank you so much for clearly showing where you are counting from, where you are entering the stitch and pausing with your hands pulled away to show the results as you go!!
This reminds me of my grandmother’s hexie quilts she hand done. Such memories. I’m definitely making a king-size in the Fall, when it’s cooler to work on my lap. I’m so excited!!!
Thank you for sharing, Robin! Love all of your tutorials and it's always a fun project. You are the best teacher and I appreciate each & every one of your videos!! Thanks again! 🧶❤️😊
When I was quilting, I loved English paper piecing. This looks so much like it. I'm hooked! I already know what yarn from my stash I'm going to use for this. This is absolutely amazing. Thank you 🤩
Robin I absolutely love your channel. I love your yarn color selection(s) for your “sample” pieces 🤩. Your patterns….what can I say, they’re beautiful. So from one subscriber, please don’t stop. Thanks 😊
I've started Xmas gifts, with a large afghan of several blues, black, and gray first on the hook. Been practicing the alpine stitch for the colors to melt together a bit, but I think I'll do these instead and alpine stitch them together if I can figure it out. Thank you, Robin! 😊😊
Hi Robin!! You are so amazing!! I absolutely hated having to join after all pieces were made and now you have made. Several join as you go methods and now I love to try doing different ways like this!! Thank you so much!! You are appreciated!! Much love to you!! 😍 Such beautiful work!!!
Oh happy me, love English paper piecing hexagons and will have so much fun making up these from the odds and ends stash. A lovely pick up put done long project if that makes sense ❤
Hi Robin I’ve nearly finished the motif blanket, please can you put out a video on how to square the blanket off. I get that’s it’s a half motif but am struggling with the method, I notice a few of your followers have requested the same. 💜
Love this motif! I keep looking at the video but cannot figure out how you were able to do continuous joins with the white that surrounds each flower in your scrap blanket in the video. Will you explain?
I made the flowers first and then made the white hexagons and attached them using the same join as you go technique that I teach in the video to join to both the flowers either side :) If you make a couple of flowers then lay them out, you'll be able to visualise it a bit better x
Do you mean for the white hexagons inbetween the flowers? I used the exact same method as I show in the video for joining - I simply made the flowers first and then joined in between them with white hexagons 😃
I have a silly question…because I tend to change my mind on the colour layout a million times before the project ends and I can never commit to a JAYG is it possible to join these all after. I’m thinking yes and it’s a daunting task but just want to make sure it’s possible before I go and make a million hexagon’s. Thx Robin!!❤❤ beautiful blanket…it’s also like the 4th one I have going right now from you. lol 😂. You are the root of my addiction hahahah. 😊❤
You can absolutely join them after if you prefer! You could sew them together OR alternatively, crochet them together? I have 3 different crochet methods here which might work? th-cam.com/video/6z8cpynq_Bs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ya7t9DgMMz1cdgf8 :)
Awesome thank you Robin!! You’re the bestest!! I know it’s gonna be more work but I change my mind Soo frequently that I just can’t commit to one idea lol…maybe why I’m single 🤔 lmao!🤣 🫣🤭
Love this motif! So cute! I do have a question because I’ve never made something like this. Do you eventually join the sides as well or do they just remain open? Thank you for sharing this method!
Thanks again for another great tutorial. Do you have any tips or suggestions on in which direction to join them? I mean, did you do all 1 row first, meaning just a row of side by side motifs, then next row fill them in?
Could you please share what kind of nails you use? I want to start wearing some nails and yours look beautiful. Thanks for another great video. Subscribed
This is joining the pile of flowers I, as predicted, didn't finished 😅. Btw, if I were to make it a rectangle (or square, same thing) how should I fill the space left between the hexagons? I'm thinking I could leave some hexs missing as a pattern so when I make a border the spaces look as part of the pattern but I'd like to fill it in better, though I can't think how, I'm still very new to crochet
I ❤ your tutorials! I've been working on using these hexagons to make a blanket but I'm stuck on what to do with the edges, especially the sides where the hexagons are staggered. I've seen several people ask something similar, so i thought I'd add to the voices - how are you handling the sides of your blanket?
I saw a finished Hexie crochet afghan with this border and thought it was pretty so I'm sharing it here: th-cam.com/video/OthEGfSaLOg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qajllnZyY7zKfP3f
That is BEAUTIFUL!!! ❤ If you don't mind, have an idea how many HOURS did it take? Love it but not sure @ present! Looks like a BIG project!??? Thank you!! 🥰✌️
@@HookedbyRobin Oh my Goodness!!! Well, it's certainly BEAUTIFUL& will be a CHERISHED HEIRLOOM!!! My hat's off to you! A round of applause! Take a bow, you TRULY DESERVE IT!!! Thank you!!! ❤️🥳🥳🥳😎
I love this pattern, but I’m having a problem with the single crochet at the beginning and then when I join it looks like I have five spaces instead of two magic ring makes a difference I have difficulty in doing it. Also, can I just continue to add octagon instead of doing ones. How do you join the white part. If you can help me, I will buy you a cuppa coffee.
Hi Robin, i am new to your channel and I came because I fell for this Hexi motif and want to make it for someone. I have a question, i have no problem making the Hexi's but for the join i may be in a bit of trouble. Can this be stitched with the yarn to join? would it make it look too bad? i want this to be really nice but i'm afraid that me trying to do the join as you go would be a bit much for me. is there a second part to this tutorial? from what i can see we are making the body of the blanket with the same Hexi pattern and joining them with those?
This is very beautiful… ❤ however… that’s a LOT of sewing in ends😢! I don’t like ends… now to try and figure out a way to do this without 10 million ends😇😊
I've decided to do a blanket. I've done 10 yellowish centers. Then I'm using up a skein of pink for the petals. And to assembly line it, as soon as I'm done with one petal, I've started another petal by doing the first round and the first 3 stitches of the second round, no chain stitches. Then I set it aside to do another petal. Then I rinse and repeat. So far 2 motifs are done with another started. I've no idea how I'm going to put it together, but after these 10 are done, the next 10 will be blue.
Let’s say you were to make the 6 hexagons around a 7th center hexagon, which looks very much like the flower you have made here…. How many of these 7 hexagon “flowers” can make up a full blanket with a solid color in between them like you have here (the white) and how many of the white would we need? I assume they are all joined the same so you’d make the white and join as you go with it as well. Do you have a pattern for this as a blanket? Or is it meant not to be planned out in that respect.
I've not really got a plan for it as such, I started by making the 7 hexagon flowers, laid them out and then made a ton of the white ones to infill inbetween them (using the same JAYG) - it's very much an ongoing work in progress that I'll be adding to over the next few months (years? Lol) so this video is simply for the motif rather than "make this blanket like I have" type deal if that makes ANY sense at all! Xx
Hello Robin I love your tutorials they are so clear and precise. But I have a query. You sound British and yet you use USA terms. When I learned to crochet 50 years ago all patterns were written, in what I now know as, UK terms. It’s only since watching You Tube that I have heard of USA terms. I prefer the UK terms, they make more sense.
I learnt using USA terminology (I'm the only person in my family who crochets so I didn't have the benefit of learning from anyone in person) I learnt using the Internet - like you I didn't realise there was different terminologies between the UK & US until long after the USA terms had been cemented into my brain 😅
I always ensure I weave my ends in but they are not infallible! If you are worried, you can use the Double Magic Ring that is super secure :D th-cam.com/video/bvQsM7VzRMo/w-d-xo.htmlsi=JhYuXDrTDYQ9qt0q

In patchwork this usually hand sewn pattern is referred to as “Grandmothers flower garden”. 🌸
Ohhhh THIS is the CUTEST ever!!! THANK YOU for sharing this as I needed small projects during the summertime. Time to yarn shop in my craft room!!! 😃
