Stop and answer these questions:
Does your ruler have a 60 degree line?
Can you sew a straight line?
Can youi sew a four patch, nine patch, log cabin block?
Can you sew two rows together?
If you answered yes to the above...
You can sew a hexagon block!
And just think, we are here to cheer you on every step of the way.
Only one word of warning........
These are so contagious...
:P :-P :-D :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Brenda - I would say the "Encore" book would be better for a first one more than the "Cubed" book - the detail on the concept and construction of the OBW hexagons and quilts, (and also the small cubes) is more fully explained, and the "Cubed" book takes it to the next stage.
Have fun!
Have fun!
