Try it!! I am addicted to hexagons -have made at least 6 of them. It's so much fun to see how different the hexagons are from the original fabric!! Don't stress if your fabric doesn't match perfectly - the overall effect will be stunning. I started one to make with hollow cubes after taking a class from Marci Baker - they are so much fun and really easy!! The directions are also in the 2nd OBW book. Try it - then when you walk into your LQS a fabric will scream at you - I'd be perfect for hexagons!! Marlene
