Okay, got that figured out!

Will this fabric work, it has a 12 inch repeat and if it will, should I use a black mottled back ground? I've been checking Hancocks of Paducah for the background as I need to order another fabric from them. What do you think? Not a problem if it's wrong, I'll find something else, picked this because I thought my DGG would love the peaches and oranges!

pretty

Yes just pic the halves together, otherwise you end up with a bunch of y seams when you put it together,

the fabric is great! I am not sure about what you need in a background fabric?

Not sure what you mean by that, but I will reread all of your directions before I start.

When I get the hexagons cut out, do I attach a fabric to each piece to, before I sew them together, so that I can eventually cut the block square? Or am I really not understanding this and making it too hard?

The blocks never go square, they stay as a hexagon, there is no background fabric, the main part of the quilt is made from only one piece of fabric usually.

For those just finding this, the cutting directions are here.

Cutebuns,okay, I see where I got it wrong! I'm remembering too much of a stack and whack book I was looking at a while back! LOL Remember the conversation we had about patience? You must have a world's supply!

Ask my kids, I don't have that much patience,

Yes, I see that now! I am printing off your directions, as I said I've mixed it up with a stack and whack book that I was looking at! Tomorrow morning I will review your directions (after my fist cup of coffee). I'll check in tomorrow! Have a great night and thank you so much for all of your help! You are a gem!
