Easy to use, the two patterns for the two different sizes worked very well. I was able to cut the fabric very accurately. I used a decorative stitch to sew the back to the front in contrasting colored thread, then connected the hexagons with zig-zag stitches in the background color. My first project was placemats. Not quite ready to commit to a whole quilt. It sure was easier than doing 1" hexes by hand!
