Sewing the Christmas Hexagon Quilt Part 2

Hello all! I actually paper pieced the block of the month for my guild yesterday and forgot to create a paper piecing tutorial! I guess I'll just have to make another paper piecing project! (Try to say that three times fast!)
In the meantime, I have been assembling the rows on my hexie quilt. It's wonderful to have a little Christmas cheer in such a hot Texas month!
Pin it....

Normally when I assemble rows to a quilt, I line up the seams in between the block and pin those. Not the case with this quilt! You just have to pin the rows and hope for the best! Not all of my hexies are PERFECTLY lined up, but none of them are off more than maybe 1/8".  It seemed to help to pin from both ends of the row at the same time and meet in the middle.



Thanks for reading,
Allyson
