Hexagons on series 11 show with Alex

[Patchworkjill]

I am just now watching the series 11 shows and on one of them Alex shows you how to make Hexagons using Wash-Away, my question is how do you put the hexagons on the sheets are they drawn by hand or can you print them on the sheets from a pattern, or can you use EQ7 and make a block in the same size as the wash-away and have the whole block full with hexagons then print it out and rotary cutter and cut the hexagons out.......... ops: ops: ops: ops:

Jill, you can print them on your printer from these free website links: https://www.google.com/search?q=prin...66&bih=635

Or you can buy an Inklingo CD with lots of options for printing hexagons: http://www.lindafranz.com/blog/what-is-inklingo/

Margo thanks heaps for this information, I have never even looked at anything to do with Hexagons before as the tearing out of the paper after you baste it all in is just not for me, I am a bit of a lazy quilter so when I saw this method I was pleased as they said on the show they are great for travelling around or sitting at the TV to do.

Print the hexie designs on Ricky Tim's Stable Stuff and you do NOT have to remove the foundations!!
You can also apply a little bit of glue from a washable glue stick and the foundations won't shift around while you are folding the edges.
Glue the edges, and you don't need to baste!!!

Let's hear a WHOO-HOO for Stable Stuff!!
