You cut six layers of triangles and sew them together as hexes
SAW = Stack and Whack
On this Board it's usually referred to as the 8 piece octagons.
Although all of these are really SAWs!
Thank you so much for taking the time to explain it. I would only wish others would take the time to read it......
:oops:
As nobody was too sure about a 4PP with Kaffe Fassett fabric I took the opportunity of a sale at hancocks of paducah and ordered the same print in six different shades/colors. I will experiment with that, will see what a OBW out of six different colors but same print will look like.
I was really not fishing for compliments! The beige background of the floral print is a dull, somehow even dirty color. But the fabric was dirt cheap and perfect for trying a 4PP out. Thanks anyway for the compliments :lol:
