I am making a GFG out of my scraps. I love this tute http://sewmanyways.blogspot.com/2009...r-piecing.html

I don't cut the hexes though. I cut the 18" wide freezer paper in 6" stips, iron two strips together(shiny side down, shiny side down on a cutting board covered with foil, it pulls right off and leaves a side to iron to the fabric)
I then go the local grade school and use their die cut machine and and just stack 5 or 6 double strips together and MASH out hexes. Saves lots of time and they are all the same size. School dosent charge me. I just clean up my mess and try and leave the room cleaner then when I found it. No, I dont have any little ones attending. Yes, I have had to teach some of the teachers how to made GFGs :). Just spreading the love. PM me if you need clearer directions. HUGS!
