I discovered the fun of making hexies, but I must warn you once you start making hexies they can get pretty addicting.
I made my hexies by first cutting out a bunch using standard computer paper with a Fiskars hexagon squeeze punch.
I like using the cutter because it cuts out the perfect size hexie to fit on a charm pack.
Place cut out hexie on a square of fabric. Fold down the corner and sew through both layers.
Then, go back and double sew the same corner to secure it down.
Next, move to the next corner and repeat.
Do this all the way around the hexie and tie off your thread.
Now, iron all your hexies so they will hold their shape.
Take out the papers and sew 7 hexies together to make a flower.
Iron your flowers and then sew them together.
I like to use dmc floss to sew the center of the hexie flower.
These hexies can be use to make almost anything you can imagine, a quilt, pillow sham, hot pad. Let your imagination go and see what you can create!
