I am so fascinated by this project. I do Stack & Whack but need 12 repeats. Did you use 6 panels to get the exact matches? I just have to do this.

I have two 6" mirrors in my handbag....must have looked strange to others while I was there positioning them all around the fabric to get an idea what the kaleidoscopes would look like.

By the way, it doesn't show how they will be exactly as you get a double mirror image, not a swirl by positioning the triangles side by side

:wink: :roll: :roll:

Yes, six panels as you need six indentical triangles to form the hexagons, which are stitched together in two halves, then formed when you complete the 'rows'...go for it, it's great fun and not as much work as you would think
