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.

Thanks for explaining. I was about to ask how you sew the hexagons together. Your quilt is gorgeous. Isn't FMQ a blast? I am learning how on my new Janome horizon. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Nicky - lucky you, having an Horizon! It will be great for your free motion too. I got the 6600 particularly to be able to do my own quilting on it - and havent been disappointed, I do really enjoy fmq.
