They are beautiful. (And as addicting as making hexagons!) One year I made one for everyone I worked with - there were 50 of them. And that did not count the ones I made for myself and family. It must have gotten rather popular that year because we used the dressmaker pins (it was over 300 pins per ball) and my friend and I went to the factory outlet to buy the pins by the pound. The cost of the pins literally tripled in cost before we stopped. So much fun, mixing the fabrics and we used ribbon and lace around the middle. I still have a few balls left, a pound of pins and various fabrics all cut up. Great memory!
