I normally quilt the obws from the back too as it is far easier to see where you've been and are going - so once the cubes are SID, I can see them clearly and that way can avoid going over them.
Your quilt is beautiful Kitty, love your design, and the cubes are wonderful!
Katrine, do you SITD the hexagons, or each triangle in each hexagon?
Thanks! I am working on my first one.
