Hexies....

Hexies, they seem to be very popular right now and I have always been a bit intimidated by the construction of them. My Aunt gave me a few patterns a while ago and I finally pulled them out and gave it a try. Aside from my sore finger tips from all of the hand sewing, they are super easy!

Now to decide on the layout....
Here are some great tutorial if you want to give it a go!
this is more of the method I am using Hexagon Piecing
this one is perfect for machine piecing I will be trying this......
Have Fun!

    I've been seeing these alot lately, but I was wondering why on your's I don't see the thread on the right side holding the fabric in place, like most others are? Is there a special trick that you know, so you don't have to hand sew them? They look beautiful!
