Above: "The Beautiful Design" Rectangle Version. Try this challenge,suitable for very experienced patchworkers only.
Above: One of the papers in the back has a postage
franking mark of 1857. This sample is made from silks, taffeta and
chintz. The hexagons measure 1/2" each side.
I created the piece above in the 1960's , when I was about 12 years old. The cotton fabrics are so obviously vintage. Note the reason NOT to sew your hexagons together with white thread! The hexagons measure 6/10ths of an inch each side.
I created the video clip above to demonstrate how to create hexagon patchwork. The basic method has not changed. See samples on this page.

Fast Track Start - Thifty Method:
Create hexagons using 80 or 90gsm paper
important note: technology does not guarantee the accuracy or size of hexagons after printing from this page, suggest use isometric paper or create hexagon using compass and protractor
or purchase hexagons from this website.
Re-cycling garment above. Cut seams, remove selvedge edges, work to the grain of the fabric - tear into strips, using hexagon as a guide, cut rectangles. Allow about 1cm seam allowance all around.
Tack paper hexagon to paper as shown above then sew hexagons together.
see detailed patchwork demonstration video clips
I would like to share hexagonal patchwork my Mother created out of recycled cotton/polyester fabrics. Some date back 40 years - each rosette is unique - its been washed countless times. Its cherished and enjoyed.
The hexagons are 1.25" (34mm)
