Oh yes. the cutting is ther part that scares me. I just know I wouldnt get it lined up exactly.

Ok So I finished getting all my hexagons made...now I just need to lay them out the way I want! This is what I have so far...but I'll let it sit for a few days and see what looks right!

It's looking beautiful! I am often accused of having a vivid imagination but to me, those koi now look like chilli peppers!

That is way to fun! I would have worried about cutting their heads off but you know.. it makes a heck of a great quilt. Its amazing how much more the blue shows once you have repositioned the fabric this way.
