I am making a GFG quilt with 1" hexies. I cut papers from card stock from a web site I found and cut the fabric into 2.5 inch squares, snipping off the corners. I fold the fabric over the paper form, and hold it in place with 2 paper clips. I baste the fabric into the hexie. I can do about 20 or more in an hour. I also found that using a small (very small) binder clip when stitching the hexies together keeps them tight and saves on the fingers. I am making the flowers and them putting white around them. I plan to connect them all with green hexies, then figure out what to do from there. I also have everything in a plastic case with 3 separate bins, so I can pick it up and go. I have 65 flowers done, all but 11 have the white hexie around them. Once they are all done, I will put them on the design wall for placement and add the green for the rows. I will send a photo when I am able to get to this part.
