Description

1-inch Hexagons might be the most popular size for Grandmother’s Flower Garden (GFG). When you sew by hand with a running stitch, each seam is just two or three loads of the needle.

No templates, no basting—unless you want to baste. On the other hand, there are 8 Good Ways to Use Inklingo for EPP if that is the method you prefer.

Hexagon flowers by Gina Elias with Inklingo

These are Gina Elias’s flowers. She wrote, “I am using 1″ Inklingo hexagons. These are so addicting! I make the flowers at ball games, on the go, you name it. Then I put a few rows together during down time at home. I can’t believe how quick hand piecing can be! I kind of have ADD when it comes to sticking with quilting projects, but I’ve been working on this one for a month and am still going strong. Fun, fun, fun!”

Thank you for inspiring us, Gina!

    I love this! printing the hexagons out on fabric and hand piecing is so relaxing, the fabric is flexible unlike EPP, the stitches do not show and it is just so easy! the hexagon quilt that I am making is the 3rd using the Inklingo method – I’m sold on it and recommend it to others all the time and give little demo’s at my informal quilt groups that I belong to.

  2. Terri (verified owner)

    I bought the hexagon shape and it was just what I needed. It made the cutting and piecing of the baby quilt I am doing for my first granddaughter a snap. I have told all the quilters I know about the Inklingo website. Thanks so much for making my quilting life easier.

  3. Sharon (verified owner)

    I was looking for a hand sewing project to work on while traveling. I was going to use templates until I found this product reviewed on a blog. Using Inklingo allows me to sew hexagons more quickly and accurately than templates!

  4. Valerie (verified owner)

    Hexagons–let me see. Pay money (I could use for fabric) on paper pieces or spend time drawing and cutting pieces myself, cut fabric, center paper on cut fabric, fold and baste fabric around paper, stitch, remove paper pieces from each hexagon. OR print shapes on fabric, cut fabric, and stitch. No contest! Thank you Inklingo.

    This is my favourite collection, because it’s my most used one. It has helped me get back to working on a 10 year GFG quilt that I started with paper templates. So before you start your next GFG quilt here is a tip – Recycle those paper templates and get Inklingo! You won’t regret it!

  6. Cathi (verified owner)

    The shapes in this collection give one a lot of options! One of those options is a tessellating design made with the “other half” hexagon. Using Inklingo to print the shapes makes it so much fun — much more fun and much quicker than other methods!

  7. Jillian (verified owner)

    This is the collection that turned me into a hex-aholic… ;} I was not interested in paper piecing, especially when many projects are then also appliqued onto a backing fabric. A lot of double and triple work in my opinion. With Inklingo it’s just sewing a running stitch next to a line, with matching marks that make a project PERFECT. People who have seen my 1-inch hex Inklingo project are amazed at the precision of each hex. Can’t loose with Inklingo!

  8. Kari L (verified owner)

    I never would have tried a Grandmother’s Flower Garden if it hadn’t been for Inklingo. This is a great tool and it helped me create a reproduction flower garden quilt of well over 1500 hexagons! It’s made quilting the quilt easier too since the seams lay flat on the back. Now it’s time for another!

  9. Julie (verified owner)

    I love Linda, Monkey and Inklingo! I’ve been piecing a hexagon quilt by hand, painstakingly cutting the fabric before marking sewing lines on each and every hexagon. It was getting realy depressing until I discovered Inklingo.

    With the printer you already own you can get loads of hexagons with both the cutting and sewing lines and match marks to help you line up longer seams.

    You can use yardage, fat quarters, charm squares and jelly rolls.

    I know i will never sew another project unless i can Inklingo it.

  10. Theresa (verified owner)

    I’m piecing together a Grandmother’s Flower Garden using this collection and would have given up long ago if I had been using papers as Inklingo saves so much time. I’m enjoying it so much that I bought the 1″ diamond collection so that I can add a diamond path as well.

  11. Marianne (verified owner)

    I started a large quilt with 1 inch hexagons several years ago, but hated having to draw stitching lines on each piece. I am now finishing the quilt with Inklingo, and cringe when I have to use a previously cut hex with no lines…Give me Inklingo any day, thank you.

  12. Marilyn (verified owner)

    Wonderful product – it eliminates so much of the time spent on paper piecing of hexagons. The support on to questions in email and on the yahoo group from Linda is fantastic!

  13. Joan (verified owner)

    These are so easy to put together and sew. I have many of these ones printed cut and ready. Linda has such a great video on this and it really has plenty in there to whet your appetite 🙂 My 1″ hexagons are ready to go, and I have joined the One Flower Wednesdays group online, which encourages me to keep going in between other sewing.

    I recommend this program to anyone who wants to make a hexagon quilt.I love this program too.It is so worth the money.

    I had always wanted to make a hexagon quilt but the work involved with English Paper Piecing discouraged me. Hexagons made the Inklingo way appealed to me both with the ease of preparation and accuracy of construction. By the way, my quilt won a ribbon at my local quilt show. I’m sold on Inklingo.

  16. Charlsey (verified owner)

    I replicated an antique quilt using the hexagons. I hand pieced 2,853 hexagons. Something I never would have attempted without Inklingo. This technique gives you precise stitching lines that make curves, inset seams, and any other shape manageable. The collections include worksheets for planning your project and suggested layouts to help with printing. Quilt projects are simplified. I highly recommend Inklingo.
