And here is mine on the design wall.

If you enlarge the pic you can see the rows more clearly. I'm a visual person so it helps to see an example. Just remember, you are only working with half a hexagon in a row.

I just plowed ahead and sewed most of my floral hexagons together, THEN read the tutorial and found out about the half bit. So, my blocks sat for several weeks and finally I ripped them apart during one of those weeks I was iced/snowed inside. Now my rows are all sewn together and waiting for the borders. Another lesson learned. Heh, heh, heh.

Hope this helps.

Someone else is also using our fabric for a OBW! I'm still just so amazed at this considering I bought mine several years ago....lol

We are working from the book by Maxine Rosenthal - One Block Wonders. YOu can't make this without it. If the video you refer to is mine posted here, it is only intended to be a guide in sewing the rows together and pressing seams open. It is ny no means intended to be a full 'tute' - you need the book. :-D

Thanks, I think I will start over. I live in WV and would love to find the floral master fabric, I am looking for it. I will be watching all of you who know what you are doing. Can't wait to see how they are coming along.

Thank you, I am learning some of this the hard way. I will not give up. So I think I will start over.

LOL. That's the way I learned. Then I bought the book. And you can tell I've really used it. Once you get the hang of it, the rest is easy and you will be able to make the next ones without using the book.

OK I ordered the book from Amazon. Looking forward to all this. Thanks

Excellent! Another victim!

The beginnings of my octogons :)

I have several projects going so I'm only doing one ramdomly while doing others. Makes life more interesting to work on several at a time and switch up all the time. Occasionally I'll sit and work on the same thing for hours!

JTapp....just flew through this post and looked at all your pics from your last OBW and found it very interesting. It is a very busy quilt and I personally love it!!! Just looking at your latest hexagons and those too are going to be just lovely!!!
And I am crazy about OBW's so there is NO bad one.
