    [ATTACH=CONFIG]477611[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]477612[/ATTACH]Here are two of mine that I did. NO!!! I did not choose the colors on the second one. My MIL had these all cut out. The pink, yellow and green one was the first one that I ever did. MIL showed me how to piece these. She was in her late 80' when she taught me how to put them together.

    Oh my goodness. I've sewn several hundreds of those together but never did it like that. I'll have to try it. Thanks for the Tute!

    You just answered the question I had (on another thread) about if one can piece hexagons like you demonstrated or if one HAD to use the EPP method.

    Thank you.
