Now why didn't I think of that? Thank you for posting this. It looks like a very do-able machine technique so maybe I'll be able to get my hexie quilt done in this lifetime!

Kaye's cutting idea looks like a no brainer, but her "sewing them together tip" is the best--
makes those hexes VERY doable--
thanks for sharing this

Wow! That will really help me when I get back to my I Spy quilt. I can't afford the Alto Quick Cut 2 machine and needed an easier method. This will do. Thanks.
