    I have a few sets of hexagons joined together in flower shapes. they are of different sizes. Does anyone know how to join them into a small lap quilt?

    I would suggest applique onto squares also. If the hex's are different sizes, I would guess it impossable to put them together otherwise. I've seen photo's of appliqued, and they are quite lovely.

    Find a background you like and applique them on it.

    perhaps applique the smallest first

    next size as a border, and keep going up in hex sizes for each border......
