Hexie Confetti Quilt Pattern

The Hexie Confetti Quilt Pattern by Cut Loose Press is a playful and clever quilt design that showcases the versatility of the Creative Grids Hexie Trim Tool.
This pattern proves that the tool does more than cut hexagons — it also provides all the markings needed to create beautiful log cabin hexies, adding depth and movement to the quilt design.
The blocks are cut from fat eighths, making this an excellent stash-busting project for quilters who love working with smaller cuts of fabric.
The design uses strip piecing and hexagon construction to create a confetti-like effect, with fabrics dancing across the quilt surface in a lively, scrappy layout.
One of the standout features of this pattern is how it simplifies traditionally tricky Y-seams.
The holes drilled 1/4-inch from each corner of the trim tool guide accurate stitching, making those intersections much easier and more approachable — even for quilters who usually avoid hexagon piecing.
Helpful cutting tips are included to eliminate measuring math by using the centre line on Creative Grids rectangle rulers, speeding up the cutting process while maintaining accuracy.
As with all Cut Loose Press patterns, the instructions are clearly written and broken down into logical steps for confident, successful sewing.
