My personal challenge for myself a few yrs ago was a GFG and I did finish piecing, maybe this winter will quilt it. I used freezer paper hexes, ironed onto strips of fabric then cut out adding seam allowance then took to my sewing machine and machine basted. Then as I needed to work on a flower, took it out of storage box and whip stitched it together.....recently I have found a book that does them beginning with a circle.....no basting or drawing seam lines or whatever...just follow the directions with needle and thread and a hex is created out of that circle quickly. May tempt me to do another..............am planning to order the large circle die from accuquilt for this.
