I don't know about 'cheaters' but hexagon one block wonder or stack n whack blocks ARE made from triangles - six x 60 deg triangles complete the 360 deg circle.

I like how this fabric has turned out - soft and pretty and will be a muted effect which is fine - not all OBWs have to hit you between the eyes! But if you wanted to do the setting triangles and make it a stack n whack, that would work well too. :-D

For those asking questions, check out the heading of the OBW and Stack n Whack Topic List for details. http://www.quiltingboard.com/virtual_section_list.jsp

I love these. Your colors are great! Before you decide to add triangles, place your hexes together so you can see the total view......... I'm addicted! and now my daughter AND her husband are too!
