Hate to see all your work go to waste. You might be able to use these hexagons for a stack n whack instead! By putting in a contrasting fabric (either lighter or darker) for the "points" when putting the hexagon together, it might just be enough to make the hexagons stand out. Seems like the lower contrasting blocks work better in a stack n whack than a OBW. I made one a number of years ago and loved how it turned out. Just an idea .....
