Hexie happiness....

I have some hospital waiting room time and a long road trip coming up shortly. My hands have to be doing something so I thought I'd have a go at making some hand pieced hexagons.
I got myself organised with this downloadable template and sorted through my scraps.
How much FUN are hexagons? And they're just gorgeous....even before they're pieced together!
I'm not that enamoured with cutting out the paper templates....it's just a little tedious but it's a fantastic way to use up scrap paper.
I found the process of making these little 1" hexies is just so relaxing and rewarding. I managed to put together around 30 in a couple of hours in front of Wednesday night television.
I'm so looking forward to putting a dent in the plastic bags full of scraps I've accumulated.
