    ❤Omg 😮 This is such a game changer, thank you so much Belle❤ you are the greatest. 😊I have the same Accuquilt hexagon 2"3" & 5. I have the 8" cube dye and dye #6 it's perfect size to cut the middle hexagon. I have a bin where I keep all my cut-up cube dye full of precuts #6 dye in all kinds of fabric prints and solids. It works perfectly. Great idea Belle. ❤Not only that I downloaded a Tack it easy press pattern, I took card stock paper ran it through my scanNcut. Now I have a perfectly tack it easy Hexie press. It makes it much easier and faster. I don't get glue on my fingers. Thank you for sharing, Belle. HAPPY SEWING

    Just bought mine! I went with this die vs the epp specific ones. 1) people said the seam allowance was not big enough in the other one. And 2 I love that it gives 3 sizes. Even if you have to do more rounds.

      Yay! I’m so happy to hear that! It’s the exact reason I came up with this way of doing it- saves time.! Make lovely things 🧡. I hope you will join in the upcoming Hexie Upcycle Challenge I’m hosting virtually with another designer. Registration opens this coming week 👏🏼

    Do you know if they have 1/2 inch hexagons?

    • @SeamsSewMe

      They do! You get six for fabric and six for papers on one die. $49 👌🏻

    If you are hand sewing the hexis together, which I enjoy doing, does the stabilizer cause the needle to become sticky , gummy, or dull if you 'catch' some of it in the stitches? Thanks for your reply!

    • @SeamsSewMe

      Not at all- there is no glue on the stabilizer I use. And the basting stick glue doesn’t get on your needle bc the glue dries so quickly.

    Brilliant! I'm in the middle of a Flower Garden quilt using my Accuquilt machine, and I'm ordering myself a roll of stabilizer right now!

      @@SeamsSewMe the original link you had posted several months ago took me to the roll of firm tearaway stabilizer, which I purchased, and have been using with success (and it still says "tearaway" listed, above). But, now I see the link takes you to your Amazon shop that only has firm cutaway stabilizer. Which should we be using? I've got about 3/4 of my hexies done using the tearaway product. Do you know what will happen when I wash the quilt with the tearaway product? I would hate to have to try to pry these hexies out of my 1,000+ fabric hexies I've made, lol!

      The both work with the same results. 👌🏻 As long as it’s a stabilizer that is firm so that you can fold over the fabrics around them. Both end up like a dryer sheet material when washed- you don’t know they are there. I’ve have customers use either.

    You could also use a firm wash-away stabilizer.

    • @SeamsSewMe
      @SeamsSewMe  2 года назад +2

      It’s not quite thick/firm enough unfortunately to get the fabric to fold over the edge evenly.

    @candacematthews3511 2 года назад

    This is awesome! Can I ask - do you iron the fabric to the stabilizer before your glue the fabric overlap over?

    • @SeamsSewMe
      @SeamsSewMe  2 года назад +1

      You could if you use fusible interfacing instead of stabilizer but for me when using stabilizer, I just use a dab of my glue stick to keep it in place ☺️

    Love this idea. If you don't want to hand sew them you can applique them down by machine.

      I plan to do that 🧡☺️

    You describe the stabilizer as “stiff” but the Amazon link describes it as medium weight. Is the link correct?

    • @SeamsSewMe
      @SeamsSewMe  2 года назад +2

      Yup- that’s the correct link 😊
