Default Hex-Triangle wreath

I saw this wreath posted by sdeaaz, a member here on the QB. I loved it and just had to make one. Her fabrics were brighter than mine. I noted that the base of the equilateral triangles was twice the length of the side of the hexagon. So I set about drafting it out. When the flimsy was done, I set it aside as I felt it needed a bow, and I'm terrible at bows. After staring at it a while, a light bulb came on.... a hexagon wreath needs hexagon-shaped berries! They really made a good finish for it. I so wanted to keep it, but I gave it to my brother for Christmas.
