Oh Yes! Brights! & Hexi’s. Definitely my things. Love Bright colors and Hexagons I’ll be in Heaven stitching this. I’m going to have so much fun making this today. Sorry I know I’m a bit excited. I feel like I just won the Lotto with this Wonky Wednesday project. Thank you for bringing out your colors.
At first I skipped the log cabin videos, because the square shapes just weren't anything striking my interest, but the Yorkshire rose got me hooked on these wonky Wednesdays, too. Love the finished piece with the stitching and without the extra wonk 😂❤❤❤
I love hexies 😂❤ And I noticed the extra piece, but since this was Wonky Wednesday I thought it was intentional... you know, you doing you 😂. I liked it both ways.
I really enjoyed this video, and am now inspired to make one myself. I've tended to stay away from 'proper' quilting, because me and maths have never really got along, and the precision required did my head in. But now....... 😂😂💃💃
Hola K3n, encontrarme contigo cada semana (lunes, miércoles y a veces días extras q nos traes regalitos), con tu creatividad y lo fácil que lo haces ver…me encanta… resueno con tu estilo des estructurado aunque siempre pensado y planeado🥰🥰🥰. Gracias, gracias gracias✨✨✨
Beautiful !!! Enjoy the visit with you. I also was a quilter for years but now it’s so freeing to relax and just sew . Thank you for the inspiration 🪡🧵♥️
Thx so much! And nice how you use scissors and keep it simple. So you can have the idea to also take it along with you and so on. And it those tools really are an investment. I do have them and they are wonderful, but it's nice to do this work with simple tools one probably has at home. Nothing to stop you then. 😉 Thx 😊
I love this one. I've got an affinity for hexagons. I enjoyed the EPP weekly project, and made a larger one to celebrate Samhain (I'm in NZ). I called it my Death Quilt and wrote the names of my lost loved ones on the papers. It turned out to be a very sacred project of grief and honouring
I also love colour theory. It makes me feel secure! I love how it marries with psychology. I've got the nails on my left hand painted blue to calm me, and the nails on my right hand painted orange to energise me 😁
I must be a crazy color person as I LOVE this and can hardly wait to work on this. Today though, I have to finish a crochet blanket that I am doing for a Canadian charity. Just need to hide in all the end threads 😍
Rather liked the extra strip…colours can be so joyful. Thank you for bringing some colour into this time of year ( spring in Wales but still rather cold)
Thanks Kathryn. I actually found a window of time to sew with you. Happy with my little piece. I am thinking about my Wonky album and I want the visual relationship with Log Cabins so I might attempt using wool to make raw edged blocks. Could be interesting or a total woops a daisy. I am glad you found the extra yellow strip. I was calling out but you didn't hear me.
Hello Maureen, I think raw edge wooly blocks would be lovely. I heard you eventually about the yellow strip, it just took a while, maybe the time difference, or jet lag. 😁❤️
When my boys were younger, I remember reading a book to them called "Why Pi." It described a lot of math concepts that were based on the natural world around us. One comment I can remember from the book about Sir Isaac Newton was that he wasn't very friendly & didn't like visitors, but he did invent the cat flap to let the kitty in, so I guess he was okay. 🙂
Yes I have heard that about him. Also that he would get up in the morning, sit on the edge of his bed, be struck by a thought and stay there for hours just thinking. 😁 Even if he wasn't a pleasant man, good for him to invent the cat flap. ❤️
What a beauty! I so love playing with colours too. I also appreciate your comments that explain why you do some things, etc. This adds to my knowledge and builds my confidence in my own knowledge. 🙂 And I can't remember what mneumonic for the colour spectrum I learned as a child. I shall look it up.
Sweet ❤. I would have just started laying the strips in order around the sides for that first row instead of alternating 3 and 3. Your color selection is amazing.very pretty 😊
I wanted to do this with you as soon as I saw it! But could I find my hexi templates or cutters nooo! then could I find a compass to draw one nooo! So had to then work out how to draw one the origami way from a square ahhh, all I wanted to do was stitch, finally found the fabrics and threads 2x hours later I am ready to begin 🙄🤣🤣🥰❤️
Great video and final test at the end. HeHe I watched Scottish Granny yesterday and I laughed my head of too. So cute and funny. Now I can't stop saying 'Wonkey Donkey Wednesday. LOL
This is my paradise, K3N. As a designer, now painter, nouveau slow stitcher, I have always been happily obsessed with colour technology. Almost took me around the bend until I learnt to accept the differences between optical and pigment colours (as I understand them). Sorry for my wittering. I my have to struggle to not get carried away with all the variations on this theme but it will be a pleasure, thanks to you! p.s. just promised myself to forget about organizing values into this - your hexagon looks beautiful.
Well, as I love all kinds of wonkiness, I saw the “extra” yellow stripe and thought: “ that looks super wonky! I love it!” However, I like it too after you took out that poor yellow stripe that must have felt really sad and abandoned! 😢… I’m actually now feeling sorry 😢 for that stripe! … 😂😂😂 I wonder how that would look if it were a triangle? 🤔🤔🤔 I love triangles 🥰 🩵💛🤎🩷💜💚🧡💙♥️🤍
How lovely in all its wonkyness (yes I spotted it!😅) and color! Speaking of rotary cutters: I thought it would make my life easier but somehow I always curve off at the end of my cutting (so away from my ruler). Now is that wonky or not? 💖🍀
This is so beautiful - the black background really makes the colours sing. I'm interested to know why you added the black on, rather than just doing it on a black background? It's probably just because you didn't have a black piece big enough...I am just nosey 😂 Mary x
Where did this saying come from, "from the back of a galloping horse"? I've never heard of this before. And I liked the extra yellow strip. Sorry you took it off! But Still OK!
Kathryn, this week’s color wheel hexie is excellent and has my head spinning with ideas of how to recut some “boring” crumb blocks and surround them with color wheel strips. A question, I would love to hear you talk about how you transitioned from traditional quilting to the freer, improvisational forms that we all love. I enjoy your science and poetry expositions so much and would welcomed dialogue on your progression in artistic endeavors. I feel stuck as a quilter with a long history of quarter inch seams and knowing firmly the “right” way to do things. 😉 I own and have gifted more than enough bed quilts for a lifetime but I am finding letting go of that identity to be hard. I’d love to know how you made the journey if it isn’t too personal and I am sure others would enjoy it too. Thanks for all you do! Barbara
Hello Barbara, I am very happy to talk about it, I will do that soon. Looking back, there was a definite journey with key turnings and crossroads along the way that lead me to where I am now. ♥️
Who knew so many options with angles, layers, order, not to mention colors! I clearly didn’t. Such fun to explore them all. Yes, more hexagons please. xo
I do love your humor and intellect- so pleasant to listen to
Thanks for sharing!
Love this! So fun how you talk to the inanimate bits…”Stay put,” “Get down!” Both informative and charming to watch/listen to. ❤
Sometimes they have to be told 😁❤️
Oh Yes! Brights! & Hexi’s. Definitely my things. Love Bright colors and Hexagons I’ll be in Heaven stitching this. I’m going to have so much fun making this today. Sorry I know I’m a bit excited. I feel like I just won the Lotto with this Wonky Wednesday project. Thank you for bringing out your colors.
Don't ever apologise for being excited, I am so pleased you are enjoying it 😊
It is so nice to see all the colours in this block. Yes please to more hexagons, it appeals to my nerdy nature 😂.
In a few weeks there will be more nerdy hexies 😁
I love it.. playing with color is my favorite hobby!! Can’t wait to get into my stash!! Thank you..
Very striking result. Thanks for another enjoyable video. Was mending while watching and listening.
Thank you for sharing another delightful weekly wonky project. Beautiful colors.
Hello from Beautiful British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Love Rainbows 🌈 ❤️
Hello Marguerite 😊
Reminds me of a pineapple log cabin I made years back … not the same in that the pineapple is still square. This is beautiful. Love this project.
Thank you, pineapples are on my wonky radar 😁❤️
@@k3n.clothtales Looking forward to your wonky pineapple twist!!!
And now I have a name for it, thank you. It sounds like a delicious cocktail 🍹😁❤️
Very pretty!!! Very nice to see all of the different things one can do with the (no longer plain) Log Cabin!!
I am happy you like it. I am having fun thinking of ways to use the concept 😁❤️
Absolutely loved it and I liked it when it was super wonky too 😂😂❤
At first I skipped the log cabin videos, because the square shapes just weren't anything striking my interest, but the Yorkshire rose got me hooked on these wonky Wednesdays, too.
Love the finished piece with the stitching and without the extra wonk 😂❤❤❤
Yes it was indeed just a bit toooo wonky 😉❤️
I love hexies 😂❤
And I noticed the extra piece, but since this was Wonky Wednesday I thought it was intentional... you know, you doing you 😂. I liked it both ways.
I did for a moment contemplate leaving it in 😁❤️
I really enjoyed this video, and am now inspired to make one myself. I've tended to stay away from 'proper' quilting, because me and maths have never really got along, and the precision required did my head in. But now....... 😂😂💃💃

Love the colour wheel I grew up in country New South Wales and we were taught Roy g biv I like yours better thanks for another great vidoe
Roy G Biv is the phrase I learned in school long ago.thanks for the video😊
Such a pretty hexagon! We were taught Roy G. Biv….a man’s name 😊
Thank you 😊
Absolutely lovely and relaxing video! Love the hexagon💕 Thank you☺️
It looks stunning, especially with the running stitch over the top. Thank you for sharing. Always something that gets my creative juices flowing ❤
Well I did not see it. Not awake yet. This is one I am opting out of. Best to you.
love it. you were wonderfully goofy in this one and it was so fitting with the beautiful rainbow fun colors 🎉
@@amyreesor8128 thank you 😁❤️
Love the effect of this. Will definitely be having a go. At moment I’m trying to finish felting three flying pigs!!
Now I am intrigued 😜❤️
Love flying pigs and felting. I hope to see them when you are finished.🐷🐖🐽
This was just so lovely to watch. Meditative. Your finished product is just beautiful.
Thank you 😊
Beautiful !!! Enjoy the visit with you. I also was a quilter for years but now it’s so freeing to relax and just sew . Thank you for the inspiration 🪡🧵♥️

I'm glad I need lose no sleep over that extra 4th strip! :)
😂❤️
I must be a crazy color person as I LOVE this and can hardly wait to work on this. Today though, I have to finish a crochet blanket that I am doing for a Canadian charity. Just need to hide in all the end threads 😍
Oh that's a task and a half 😁
@@k3n.clothtales , it was a full task, but it felt good to do something for someone else!
Rather liked the extra strip…colours can be so joyful. Thank you for bringing some colour into this time of year ( spring in Wales but still rather cold)
My pleasure Alison, I almost left the extra strip 😁❤️
Beautiful colors👌💝🙏
Love hexagons

I love this, but im not especially good at it. It will be quite interesting how this project turns out. Nothing like riding on the edge! Lol. Hugs ❤
I have every faith in you, the foundation cloth will keep you true, what happens within that can be as wonky as you like 😁❤️
Lovely colour. Love hexagons. Thanks for sharing.
Oh, that looks like fun. Thank you.
What a beautiful project
Thank you Paula ☺️
Gosh, that was fun! I’m going to make one right now!

I love it. You're so clever ❤
In the US we use the name Roy G. Biv to remember the seven color. I love how this turned out!
Thank you Megan ❤️
Another beautiful piece. Thank you for keeping me company while I work on my nephew's quilt for his "big bed".
Thank you Nicole, going into a big bed is so exciting for a little one. How lovely to make him a quilt. ❤️
Sweet ❤. I would have just started laying the strips in order around the sides for that first row instead of alternating 3 and 3. Your color selection is amazing.very pretty 😊
You can of course do that, it would just give a different look ❤️
Too common though. Your's has that extra something special.
Очень красиво ,нравятся все ваши работы❤

😂 I almost hate to tell you now but there's a link in the description how to draw a hexagon just using a ruler 😉❤️
Ha ha yes I saw it too late 😄
Great video and final test at the end. HeHe I watched Scottish Granny yesterday and I laughed my head of too. So cute and funny. Now I can't stop saying 'Wonkey Donkey Wednesday. LOL
😂😂😂❤️
Love this 😍
Thank you 😊
You're welcome 😊
Wow colour ! Love it ❤😊
OK, I will be sorting fabric , looking for red, blue, yellow, green, purple and orange 😊 I love wonky --- thanks for letting us be us 🌷🌷🌷

This one is now my Must Do! Thanks sweet lady....🤗

It looks 3 dimensional. I love that! Thank you 🙂
Muito lindo! Que amor ❤. Uma obra de arte.

I wonder how that would look if it were a triangle? 🤔🤔🤔 I love triangles 🥰
🩵💛🤎🩷💜💚🧡💙♥️🤍
Poor little yellow strip, it's time will come. 😂 I have an idea for triangles at one point... 😁❤️
@@k3n.clothtales 😂😂😂 And I even wrote it wrong 😂😂😂
I didn't notice and had to look back, it's also a stripe 😁❤️
@@k3n.clothtales Oh, I thought I had spelled it wrong and I was about to make myself write the word a hundred times 😆
I love it! I have a birthday gift to make and this will be it!
Good timing 😁❤️
I learnt the color wheel is ROY G BIV. (NY,USA) The V being violet, but I use Roy G Bip for purple. LOL
ROY G BIV is what my sons learned here in PA, USA too. I didn’t learn a mnemonic when I was in school a very long time ago.
How lovely in all its wonkyness (yes I spotted it!😅) and color! Speaking of rotary cutters: I thought it would make my life easier but somehow I always curve off at the end of my cutting (so away from my ruler). Now is that wonky or not? 💖🍀
Yes, they can be tricksy, and dangerous. I have a scar on the index finger of my left hand to prove it 😂❤️
Because you jumped forward, I couldn't tell did you do the extra yellow on purpose?
No it was a mistake 😂 I owned up to it at the end and took it out. 😉❤️
I never noticed the extra yellow strip., and I considered myself a "very observant" person...🙄
I didn't notice it until I had sewn the black triangle to it, although I saw it didn't look right, it took me a minute to work out why 😂❤️
This is so beautiful - the black background really makes the colours sing. I'm interested to know why you added the black on, rather than just doing it on a black background? It's probably just because you didn't have a black piece big enough...I am just nosey 😂
Mary x
I could have done it on a black background, the truth is, I didn't think of it until I was already making it 😂♥️
the black as the background, may have darkened the colors atop?
Where did this saying come from, "from the back of a galloping horse"? I've never heard of this before. And I liked the extra yellow strip. Sorry you took it off! But Still OK!
I don't know, it's quite commonly said in Britain I think. It's quite descriptive. 😉
Extra yellow 😂😂😂
😁❤️
We were taught to say roygeebiv. Roygbiv😂

Really liked this one. I love that you slow stitched the entire block. 🌈💛🙏🙏💛🌈
This is a lovely block K3n. Thank you for sharing your ideas and your thoughts. ❤
Glad you like it! ☺️
Умница ❤
I do believe this is my favorite Wonky Wednesday thus far. I love this hexagon log cabin block!
Yeay! And thank you 😊
