      Thanks Misty... great idea for using the charms. Tip was good idea to cut charm in half first, then use the half hexi template.... wish there was a little more overhead camera work for initial steps to create the the braid. Love this placemat!!

    I guess you could use jelly roll strips, since the pieces are 2 1/2"? I have some Christmas fabrics that would make pretty placemats... Thank you, Misty for this awesome tutorial!

  • @susanowen1709
    @susanowen1709 11 місяців тому +1

    The half-hexi braids look so much nicer than the ones made with rectangular pieces; much more like an actual braid and not just a zig-zag. It's so easy, too; once you've stitched the first two pieces and wrapped your brain around the orientation, the rest is a breeze. This would be a great beginner project, since it's a simple technique with impressive results. I made a pair of braids to use as a backing for a table topper, and it turned out so pretty that I decided it was going to be the front, instead 🙂

  • @juliadixon6252
    @juliadixon6252 2 роки тому +39

    If you turn the template so the long side is in the middle, you cut it in half without having to use another ruler. More motion and time efficient.
