Izy, I do use squares to start with but if the squares are too big they overlap way too much on the back. I use squares but then trim them after I've basted them on to the papers to the 1/4" allowance, I don't cut out hexs from my fabric. Is that what you meant?
Can't you just use 1" squares? I would LOVE to see this when you do it
:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
I meant to say, cutting 1"squares with your rotary cutter would be quicker to make the 1/2" hex's with, rather than cut hexagons out !! :thumbup:

I may be totally deaf, dumb and blind too when I'm finished but, hopefully, it will be one gorgeous quilt, lolol..
Ditto that! :lol:
I'm positive it will be gorgeous when you are through, but I surely don't have the patience, the finger dexterity or the eye sight to do stuff that small any more! :lol:
