Last year I started making a hexi table runner for BFF. Her dining table is long so I am still adding to it. Hope to have it finished for Christmas this year. Plan to appliqué it to the backing. The hexis have 1" sides. My son and wife just had a baby boy and I have been staying with them to help. Have gotten quite done but wish I had brought more to work with. I use freezer papers and sew up around those.
