Fabulous! I'm doing Grandmother's Flower Garden with hexagons. Instead of using paper inserts; I cut waste plastic Hexagons with the smallest die of the Go Cutter.
Waste plastic, meaning the clear plastic packaging like salad containers, the stiff plastic you have to cut to get to things you buy...I just use the flat pieces and run them singly through the cutter. Presto bunches of free inserts for hand quilting.
Then, I cut the next size up hexagon for the fabric for the Flower motif's. It makes it easier to baste a hexagon shape to a hexagon shape.
