It’s very interesting to see this pattern on a folder. Why? My mom bought a quilt kit in 1976 from Better Homes and Gardens when she was pregnant with me. She never finished it, and in high school I busted it out to try it and also never finished it. Ha! It’s funny because the quilt was made up of tons of hexagons in different, fun fabrics – the very same way you see them here. This delightful folder makes great use of the hexagon shape, and it’s the perfect way to bust that paper scrap stash. Learn how to do it below.

PS – I need to ask my mom if she still has that kit. Wouldn’t it be fun to finally finish it?

When I was a kid, I found a very similar, unfinished, hexagon quilt stash at my grandma’s house. I learned to sew by working on that project. But, I never finished mine either!
