I have so admired the hexie flowers that I have seen where the petals are "fussy cut," so I thought I would try to do one. Wow!! It is really hard to get those little fussy cut pieces centered!! There must be a trick and I am hoping some of you that do the fussy cutting will share your tricks with me!!! This was a flower that was totally out of my comfort zone!!
But I did get to use some of my hand-dyed fabric as the center!! Woo! Hoo!

To fussy cut with ease you need a template from Jane at want it need it quilt ( Jane from the hexie group) they aren't very expensive and sooooo useful. Mind you , you have to be pedantic as to where you cut and I'm a bit lackadaisical lol
Yes, many use a template. I don't do the normal hexies. (see my blog on Thursdays--except tomorrow). I fussy glue! I tell you what, I'll do a tute next week. I need to so that everyone knows how I do my fussy cuts on my crazy hexies that I do.
Yes I use a template I cut out of an old X-Ray . I bleach it and then it is clear. Great templates and free.
Your hexie looks great.
Fussy cutting is. A challenge for me too. Your turned out beautifully.
I love the fussy cut hexagons, such a fun idea. I hope you and your family have wonderful day today.
