This is fabulous! I saw that F & P show, too, & was quite intrigued with the technique. I'd rather have teeth pulled than do Y seams, so I may have to try this. Especially if my quilt could look anything like your beauty!

Burchquilts, I don't see any reason why yours should not look as good. Actually, the reason I did this as a half hex is because I thought I would take it to my guild and suggest it as a spring retreat project. Many members of the guild are afraid of branching out. I have a plan for another that is a half hex star.
Of course, it really helps if you use dramatic fabrics. I love batiks for that reason.
