Fold fabric over edges of paper, wip stich at corners (no need to remove stiches) Aftersewing remove pin.When hexie are sewn together you may carefully remove paper. I use pointed tweezers , paper can be reused several times.
HTH

are you just whip stitching the corners? And how are you joining the hexes together after doing that? Are you using a ladder stitch or something similar? And is this all done by hand? Thanks, just trying to understand as I really want to do one of these. Sorry for all the questions.
