Phew! Well I made one following the tute from here. It is a bit "fiddly" at first, but each diamond gets easier. A few thoughts and I was doing this. Spray starch or size fabric, work with small craft iron to keep sharp edges, altho, maybe with sizing that would not be necessary. Either a stiffening or thin batt or felt cut the size finished Hexie and put inside as project begins to give more body....and keep shape. But all in all, it is cute, and I MAY make a few for holiday, perhaps to decorate gift box, attaching a twine or gold thread for tree hanging afterwards...just thinking.....btw I used f&p Hexie ruler...largest one to begin with, ended up finished at 2" side, so not being near template I used to cut out Hexie, I presume it had 4" side as somewhere I read finished half of cut one....
