I haven't got much further on my patchwork. I had to add another strip as it turned out that I couldn't do maths and it wasn't square.
I have taken out the tacking stitches and paper from the middle hexagons and now all I have to do is decide how I am going to do the border. And this is the thing that is taking up all my time. I do not know!
There has been surprise at how fast it has been over day 1 and 2 but the hexagons are not that big at only 4cm at their widest. I have included a pen in the photo so you can see how small it really is.
Overall I am happy, there are a few bits which could have been sewn better but it is easy to get into a nice rhythm when sewing, and sewing the hexagons into a strip and then sewing strips together makes it go quickly.
So today (which is now Day 4) I have to decide about the border.
