How to Use the EZ Quilting Hexagon Template with Jennie Rayment
Quilting Equipment • Educational, G, 01-Jun-2016
Where would patchwork be without the Hexagon – this is a patchwork classic! This is a multi-size template and perfect for use with the rotary cutter. 1.5 inch up to 5.5 inch. This is traditionally the perfect quilt for using up scraps and creating a family heirloom.
There is also a mini template that works perfectly with 2.5 inch strips so jelly roll strips too (or think of cutting down uour 5″charm squares).
This template is designed to be used with strips of fabric.
Jennie talks through some other options such as fusing the hexagons and Valerie has done something similar in her workshop – Inner City.
If you really like this form of patchwork – check out the workshops for EPP – and you could use this template to cut your own papers. But remember that cutting paper does blunt your rotary blade so think about using an old one.
