Oh wow!!!! I love your idea!!! What size are your hexagons? Mine are 1.5 inches. What size diamond would I need? I am very challenged in math, especially geometry.

My hexies are 1" and so are my diamonds. I printed them off here. You can make them any size you want before you print them.

I just finished 3 hexi projects, pillow cases and sheet tops. I really enjoyed doing them, did it different from years ago, and it went Way quicker.
Once I had the individual hexies stitched over the form I pressed them, took the form out and pressed again.
I just kept them stacked neatly in a little box until I was ready to grab the next hexie.

The first time I did the never ending holiday table topper I kept the forms in until I'd stitched the one above it and working with all that cardstock made the stitching a real pain because you can't manipulate the fabric like we like to do.

I just finished making a GFG quilt and have several hexie's left. I love your version, but I'm perplexed as to how you figure out what size, diamonds to use. Is there a pattern I can copy from somewhere? I need a diamond to fit into the space for 1-1/4" and 1-1/2" hexie. I'd really appreciate any help or suggestion. Thanks!

I printed off some 1.5 inch diamonds and they fit perfectly with my 1.5 inch hexagons. I can't wait to put some fabric on them and try out different layouts.

Go go to this website. http://incompetech.com/graphpaper/ your diamond will be the same size of the hexies you are using.

I did a very interesting Hexie class on Craftsy and also printed out the pieces from online.
