Hex-plosion von Katja Marek

I was a bit intimidated by the geometric layout at first, but the templates make the piecing surprisingly smooth. The way the shapes create a flowing, almost three-dimensional pattern is incredibly satisfying once it comes together.

The way the hexagons lock together in this pattern is incredibly satisfying, and I love that the instructions cover multiple layout options for the blocks. It took me a weekend to get the hang of the paper piecing, but the result is so worth it.

The diagrams in the New Hexagon series are so clear that even the trickiest intersection points finally clicked for me after one practice block. I love that the project pushes you into intricate geometric layouts without leaving you stranded—every shape feels intentional.
