You make up your own design once you have cut your hexagons - and you need one of the books to start with!
You didnt say how much of the fabric you have, but you will need 6 repeats so as it is a 12" repeat you should have absolute minimum of 2 yds, ideally 2-1/2yds.

If you have a desire to do one, just do it, they are so much fun and you never know what you will come up with in the end.

Please tell everyone that this is NOT a hard pattern, but fun! I think they think the magic is in the cutting or the sewing - it's in the fabric! OBW is one place where surprises are a good thing. : )
