The .50″ hexagons I had printed for Insanity are being put together in 3 different types of hexagon flowers — ones consisting of 4, 7 and 9 hexagons. The 4-hexagon units will be at the centre of whatever this turns out to be and I’ve now started joining them. I’m purposely keeping them not lined up at this point.
Never wanting to have to press all the little seams at the end of a large quilt again — been there, done that — I’m pressing as I add every two or three flowers. I finger press as I go and that makes the pressing with an iron a lot faster. This is the back with all the little seam intersections pressed. Sometimes I think the back of blocks are as interesting as the front!
Smudge, awake and alert on the windowsill.



Lovin’ your little hexagons Cathi.I agree, the back of blocks can be so pretty. One of the joys of hand piecing.Crispy
