Pieced Hexies Deux: 10 New Designs to Rock Your Quilts
Mickey Depre was introduced to the world of fiber arts by her own personal "grandmasters" at the age of four. Grandmothers, great aunts, aunts and her mother filled her days with cloth, needles, yarn and such. Textiles, from vintage to current, have always fascinated her, and her taste has always been for all sewing in general mending to garment-making. In 1997, Mickey found quilting on her own. She is the first quiltmaker in her family, but vows not to be the only one. Chicago has been her lifelong home. Married to her high school sweetheart, Paul, they have grown twins, Paul Jr. and Emily. Mickey enjoys sharing her love of fiber through lectures and workshops. Her workshops mix technique instruction with individual creativity (and always a giggle or two). "Pieced Hexies Deux" is Mickey s third publication with Kansas City Star Quilts. You can find more Pieced Hexie designs in "Pieced Hexies: A New Tradition in English Paper Piecing" and "Ring Around the Hexies."
