LOL. I was wondering what is the length of the side of the diamond you used? I have a generic 60 degree diamond ruler, and the biggest size is about 8 and a half inches and the finished hexagon using that size seemed enormous - it is much harder to work out the finished size of a quilt with hexagons because of the way they are laid out - at least it is for the mathematically challenged like me! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244865727892186735.post-81569491594612449182013-11-16T06:05:44.878-05:002013-11-16T06:05:44.878-05:00Its looking beautiful.
