    That diamond shape between the white paths could have a blue hexie in the middle of those connecting hexies.....just a thought.....or like you said just the border...like the sky above the garden....

    You are the second person that I have heard say this is addictive! Guess I am going to have to give it a try!!! Love what you have done so far.

    wow very nice. This is something I have never done but want to learn. I don't know how. I did read that once you learn it-it is very addicting. Something I can do when my knees bother me. Thanks for sharing.

    I like the paper templates better since the fabric doesn't slide on them. Some like the plastic better. I bought some of both so it's just a matter of preference. Here's a link that shows you how to make the hexagons but you've been warned!!! They are very addictive!!! http://thescrappyappleyard.blogspot....templates.html
