I really wanted to be all removed and post just a photo today (which I already posted a few hours ago on Instagram), but then I read this really awesome post, and had to stay true to myself..
I brought my quilting to the beach today and stitched 4 hexies together. That was enough, then I put it away and ate an entire piece of saganaki with a nice big horiatiki ("greek salad"). I even had some beer. It was a good day. I hope to have more of these in the future.
(and hope that you have some too).

Sounds like a lovely day! Question: how do you get the backs of your hexis to lay so flat? I just made my first ones the other day and they are not nearly so tidy-looking on the back side...I am using 2.5" squares and 1.5" hexi papers.
