I sat and looked at it for a while. It goes very nicely with Maisy Cat on her cushion.
And then I decided what to do.
I didn't want to have cut hexagons on the edge. It looks fine on other works but I didn't fancy it for this. So I have started to do more patchwork hexagons on the back by adding them as I go. If you look at the right and left side I hope you can see that I have added hexagons and sewed them right side together along the edges. The left side I have gone a bit further. So at the end I will have to turn it inside out and it will all work out. Maybe!
There will be the peaks..tips..er. what is the name of a top angle?... of the hexagons but it will be ok as I am going to make my own cushion pad which will just be square.
UPDATE:
Ok, so I didn't explain myself very well, did I?
Here are some more photos which I hope will help and if they don't then you will just have to trust me.
And to help even more here is a link to a blog where the person explains it much better.
She is making a quilt and I am making a stuffable cushion so obviously I need mine open.
Hope that helps.

now as you know it's not difficult to confuse me - but WHA? I don't understand :-(
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you, Heather.
ReplyDeleteI have added a bit of explanation which I hope helps.
LOL now I get it. I like the idea of knitting hexies and making a cushion cover in the same way, but knitted...one more for the "to do" list!!
