I believe I cut the small ones 1 3/4 or 7/8 I am not sure which at this point, I might have to go a measure one, There is more fabic on the back than the front. But sure was fun. I need to find the dark green fabric yet. I have to head on to fabricland as the last walmart that I went to didn't have any plain dark green.
Wow that is tiny! I thought I went small with a 2 1/2" strip! Gotta try smaller now... CHALLENGE! :mrgreen: I love it.
AND you mentioned earlier what I think is a fabulous idea, if I understood you correctly, of putting the tinies in the middle, then a border, then some of the bigger blocks, then more border - I wonder if you could put smaller ones then bigger ones
with no border between How would that work? We need soemone good at maths to tell us what sizes of hexs would work like that - what do you think? :D If it wouldn't work, then you could do like you said, put an inner plain border to make it the right size then more hexs, starting with half ones so you had a straight edge OR appliqueing them on OR doing Y seams (yuck, hate those! but I see you did them with your dark blue!)
