I have the speed button about half speed, and find I can control the stitch length better like that - if I have it on faster I cant keep them so regular!

:lol: The other Clermont being fmq'd at the moment (Spiral Strips pattern). Or if you mean just the "next" quilt - another awaiting basting, one still on the wall, two cut, plus all the fabrics already bought with a definite plan for them :mrgreen: This retirement is hard work!

No, pattern is very easy, and best thing is no waste, because the offcuts from the hexagons are used in the borders. The half hexagons are joined in horizontal strips, then the rows sewn together.
My only problem was deciding what, or how to, quilt in the hexagons because as you can see they are irregular in shape and several things I tried just didnt work. But the "twirlys" work quite well I think.
