Suzi, I've had my hexagons on my design wall for MONTHS--too scared to start and thinking I'll figure it out the more I look at it. I think I've got it but I've decided to ask one of my quilt guild friends to come over and just walk me through it. She's wonderful that way and I don't want to have to rip anything out. I think it's one of the more difficult concepts to grasp (and I graduated with honors as well). A lot of good that does us when putting together a OBW! I have a quilt retreat in a few weeks and my intent is to have it together by then for "show and tell".
