Tip toe through the hexagons Cutie style! Cutting
#601
I tried the red blocks in the middle and didn't like them there so I took most of them out. I also took out some of the tan blocks. I tried smaller, calmer cubes and they didn't work either. I am still not crazy about this. So, I am going to assemble it and use it to practice my "short arm" quilting.

It's hard to be sure about colors from pics on line.It's your quilt,so do what works for you.The quilt after quilted might turn out to be a fav & kudos to your DD for helping.Every quilt made brings it's own learning curve with it.If/when you do another OBW,it will prob seem very easy.

I am still struggling. I probably should have left it alone, bit I tried again. It just seems like there is a nice quilt somewhere in these block but I can't find it!
