Description:
Artist Statement: "I love working with just two colors and small hexagons (11 mm side). At times, I just need to get started; after finishing the star, I had no idea how to continue. Last year, I created the big circle and corners, looking to give it a medallion appearance. “Hextesela” has 11,243 pieces (10,949 hexagons, 252 pentagons and 42 circles). Fussy cutting: 1762 pieces. About 240 quilting hours."
