BTW, this was as fun as it looks, so once I get these sewn together I am going to start the real one :)
I also think it looks great! If you wanted to make it a little bigger and have each hexagon stand out, try putting triangles of black in between each one. That will not only frame it but give a star design as well. And if you include that fabric as your border, then people will see what the fabric started out as. No matter how you do it, it will be wonderful! :thumbup:
Thanks for the suggestions. I don't have any of this fabric left. I thought about the triangle thing but this is probably going to end up as a dog bed for my little dog, so it doesn't need to be any bigger!
