That was my thought to try a few different sizes to get where you want to go. My personal preference is 1 in. hexies. I did a few 1/2 inch to use in a border. Those are really cute. 3/4 is nice also. I have not used larger than 1 in. It actually goes pretty quickly once you get started. I work on mine during down time and it's surprising how much you can get done in 10 to 15 min. from time to time, or a the evening in front of a boring TV program! I haven't used the freezer paper method, but it is interesting, and looks like it would be very accurate. Have fun with your project!!
