I sewed 7 together to create one big hexagon. I do like the way they look on this navy background, but am not 100% sure.
They now measure about 15 1/2" across
I will have 52 3" hexagons. Divided by 7 means I get 7 blocks with a few left over. If I make a few more, I get 8 blocks. Not sure I can set 7 OR 8 blocks into a quilt top.
Back to the drawing board.
The letter E for my hexi-bet quilt.
There is a game tonight, so you know what I'll be doing.
Enjoy your week.

Oh, Carla - you are a woman after my own heart! I predict lots of yelling at the tv tonight, too, but I'm not sure if they're showing my game or not but I've been watching everybody - as long as there's a game on!
Beautiful hexes.
Holy moley, look at those fancy hexagons! I've never seen anything like those. Are you a fellow Canucks fan?? (I know Carly, the above commenter, is not....hehehe)

This cracked me up! I do the same thing but with football....which is almost over unfortunately. Great hexagons!
The hexies are gorgeous! Oh, I miss hockey, especially hockey night in Canada - still have the old theme song as my cell phone's ring tone ;). Have my fingers crossed that San Diego may one day get a team. . .one can always dream, eh? Go Leafs! Stop snickering, yes, I am a Leafs fan ;) are there many of us left anymore?

They look absolutely stunning against the navy
I really like that navy for a background, Carla. It really make the hexies stand out. Enjoy the game and the quilting.
OMG! Did you put together all those pieces into the hexagons? I can't even imagine.
I have 2 boxes of hexagons in 2 sizes and I'm trying to figure out how to do them. Hexagons are not something I've learned how to use yet.
Those hexies are amazing!! Hope you enjoyed the game!
Those hexagons are fantastic!
