I have just read through this post....WOW...THANKYOU for all your lovely comments...you are all very kind!!! I have been working on this for FOUR years!!! ( in between other projects!!) . It is just a good 'go to' project to take when I have hospital or dental appointments or on holiday!!! I visited the Quilt Museum in York, UK last year and saw an old ( over 100 yrs!) Hexie quilt displayed.....UNFINISHED !!!! It was great to know that quilters long ago also had UFOs!!!. Redstiletto......sorry if I've 'hijacked' your post!! There are no 'stupid' questions!!! We share and learn from each other!!! Oh..and no Quilt Police either!!!! Happy Hexing everyone!!
