Quilt as you go Hexagon template
I was wondering if anyone has found the quilt as you go 2.5" hexagon (2 piece) template anyplace other then MSQC. This is the one that was designed by Daisy and Grace. I watched the tutorial and thought this would make a fabulous winter hand quilting project. So many options. I have scraps that would be perfect for this type of quilt block. I loved the idea of using it as a Christmas tree skirt. My plan is to gather up fabrics and scrap batting, get it all cut out while it is to hot this summer for any hand quilting then begin working on it when I feel like it. I don't mind buying it from MSQC but I am still waiting on an order I placed in late April, and FedEx shipping is horrible where I live.

I wish MSQC would give you the option of choosing your shipper. FexEx always mis-delivers our shipments and those of our neighbors. I've had their drivers stand on my front porch, arguing with me about my own flipping address. I can't stand those guys.

My FedEx driver is wonderful!! He grow up and graduated from the school in town. He knows everyone in the area. He puts the package in my storage box by the house, as I live in the country and don't want it left out for everyone to see. Now the UPS driver, I swear they change drivers every two weeks. I can tell when they change drivers, packages are by the door ! ! !

Being an old timer, I have a set of View & Do Hexagons that were put out by Kaye Wood. I don’t know if they are still offered by her site but they are the same price and you may be able to get them shipped by another company?

Three sizes. Check out the other shapes too. I didn't understand Missouri Star not knowing this was already available but this shop doesn't really advertize it or do videos about it. Shame since it was one of a kind.
A tutorial is right here on this board.
