Joanne - I just did a mini one with fabric that had 6" repeats. The book says as well that if you want to go bigger, you can cut 2 repeats fro each strip - then some of your hexs will start repeating so you can turn the triangles around to change the effect. Clear as mud? Heck, you've got the book, she puts it more clearly. :? :lol:
