Hi Honey.....(still feels like I'm talking to DD!) I am doing 1 in hexis. I make 2 1/2 in sq. I pin the paper on the sq, then trim the corners before stitching. Hope this helps.
I found the video of Eleanor Burns show showing how she makes Grandma's Flower Garden.\

In looking further at Eleanor's site, I found this printed fusible with the pattern pcs. I just ordered it. Cost $3.50 with 61cents shpg. reg. mail. I will copy the pattern before using. I would never have considered making this quilt without finding this method. Hope it works for you.
