Name of pattern that begins with a hexagon
I'm looking for a pattern name that starts with a hexagon and surrounding hexagons are formed by sewing strips of fabric along hexagon sides rather than sewing hexagon to hexagon like a Grandmothers Flower Garden. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Is it Amy Butler's Sexy Hexy quilt? http://www.amybutlerdesign.com/pdfs/...Love_Quilt.pdf

No, but I like your suggestion, too. Thanks!
|
do you mean like a log cabin only starting with a hexagon instead of a square?
|
There is a Jelly roll pattern called Wee Spin that is constructed this way.
|
Fonz and Porter (Mary Fonz) did one one their PBS program in January. It was really easy they way they did it. I am thinking of doing this block too.
|
Missouri Quilt Co has a video tutorial for this, using jelly roll strips and their half-hexie ruler. I am making one now and I like it. The tutorial is on their website.

I only found patterns for octagons in my files, one is called Stone Log Cabin the other is Lotus lane by quiltmaker.com/web extras. Stone log cabin is paper pieced, the Lotus file comes with templates. Nice ones all the same and free.
|
That's the idea. Do you know the pattern name and where I can find it?
