I use my camera to help with block placement. It's easier to pick out the ones that need to be moved. I just lay out a general design I like - then rearrange until nothing screams at me - then sew them together quick before I drive myself crazy! As far as quilting, you can do what ever you have the energy to do.. you can do something in each hex, or an all over meander. There was a post on here a little while back with some quilting ideas.. I'll see if I can find it.
Found it!
