Love it, love it, love it Alyx! Simple yet elegant. I'd be hard press to pick between this one and your butterflies. It boggles my mind that something so tedious turns out so beautiful. I can't imagine doing a whole quilt with hexis can you?

Hi NewbieJean -- I've responded to your comment earlier, but most of Craftsy comments don't make it onto the screen and "stick" -- and then (like above) some of them stick twice! Thanks much for your generous comments. And, no, I can't imagine doing a whole quilt with hexies. Yikes! I'm off now, finally, to view the June video. Wish me luck!

Luck to you! I've had the same double/triple/not at all problems with replying. help@craftsy says its a bug they're working on and to try refreshing the screen. When I hit return and nothing happens I hit refresh and voila! my comment gets posted. They also said to click on the "Flag as inapproriate" to get rid of doubles....
