    well I did kind of skim the book .
    But here is an update. I have all sewn together and now need to figure out how to rearrange them .

    Ok here is the lastest pic and I am at a loss. Not quite sure where to go from here.
    I have them sort of set up by color I think. I have been taking photos and looking at them on the camera and moving things. I have some white on white that I can use as a back ground I think.
    I am at THAT point where one just sits and scratches their head. lol

    me, I'd go get more fabric and keep going.... ummmm, maybe. I've never put them on a background or done the triangle thing.... someday. If you have some leftover hex's I'd float them on your background further away. I also love contrast.... have you considered black? That color would explode off black!
