    Mine was made using Maxine Rosenthal's OBW method. The pieces are sewn to create rows that are then stitched together. No y seams at all! I love patterns that look harder than they are.

    I found your post after posting mine. I like the way you have arranged your blocks. I should have done a smaller quilt first instead of queen-sized. Not so many blocks to play with.

    You do it by making rows of trapezoids, rather than thinking about them as hexagons.
