Hexagon Flowers

About a year ago, I needed a hand project to take on vacation and decided to start a Grandmother's Flower Garden of 1" hexagons. I finished about 7 flowers and have since discovered that my home-made templates weren't printed to scale. I've since decided to work on it in earnest. Here's the 25 I have done so far.


Today, I found one of my favorite prints from Kate Spain's Terrain line and was able to fussy cut 6 different parts of the print for 6 different flowers.








It left a rather Swiss-cheesy mess, but I think the results will be worth it.


Here's one of the cuts. Even rearranging this one results in strikingly different flowers.

I'm really so impressed by this! Thanks for the little tutorial on how you cut these. It makes a huge difference on how the EPP flowers turned out.
