Hexagon Quilt Progress

 This weekend I made some great progress on my hexagon quilt.  I'm making these diamond units and then will join them all together.

I finished three of these diamonds this weekend, all except for these last three little pieces, which I finished attaching during nap time today.

This is what it will look like when it's all connected.  I have a total of four done now.  My blues are somewhat sorted by depth of color - from dark blue to turquoise to light blue.  It seems like there are a lot of lighter colors here but that's just because those are the ones I've put together so far.  It will be a balance of the three shades in the end.  I have little snack size ziplock bags with the hexagon sets for each diamond unit so I can just grab one and not have to sort pieces. 

This is a really fun quilt to make, but it's definitely going to take forever to make a king size quilt.  But just imagine how cool this will look when it's done ;)
