Hex Project ReDesign

I'm still making hex's...a lot of them actually.  This is/was my design for my hex geometric project.

I decided to make the entire background out of hex's and use a solid/other fabric to encase the circles in.  I like the idea of using black fabric.....such a good contrast against these colors, don't you think?


































But I'm not quite sure how I'm going to go about it. I am thinking of doing a reverse applique technique my friend Susan developed.  (You can see the start of my Georgia piece here and the finish piece here. using her technique.)

I printed out the design and started to color in just to get some ideas.  Always fun to play this way isn't it!




I know these look pretty rough....but it's giving me some ideas to work from.  I may have to tweak the design and I guess in the meantime I'll just keep sewing hex's!!  HA  Besides...what else do I have to do!  😜😜
