Six hexagons and four diamonds.
This is what they become.
A heart.
Did you guess it??
This was fun making. I saw it on a norwegian blog some days ago and I fell in love with this heart. During the day at work I sat and speculated how it was done. I played with hexagons in my head and knew it would not work. But then I solved the problem. I had to add some diamonds. Of cours, why didn't I think about that earlier. I used six one inch hexagons andfour one inch six-point diamonds. And if you see at the photo from yesterday you can see how they are supposed to be stitched together. I left two sides of one diamond in the middle to turn the right side out and stuff it. I think I will use 1 1/2 inch templates next time I do this. I am planning to make bigger heart in red for christmas.
Several bloggers have given me so nice comments on the cosmetic bags I made yesterday. I have made one today and I will show you tomorrow how I made it. A little tutorial.

I am also making hearts these days. Yours is beautifull.
May Britt, I love your heart...I love all hearts!
I would love to see how you put it together..
Thank you
Soo cute. I love the way you placed the flowers on the top. I look forward to the tutorial.
Your heart is very pretty! No I did not guess what you were making.
May Britt, you are the best blogger friend!!! :D Thank you soooo much for "teaching" us how to make the hearts...and now we get a tutorial on the makeup bags!! WoooHooo!! You're the best! :D
I like the hearts AND the cosmetic bags! I bet the heart would be neat stuffed with potpourri, in Christmas colors, small enough to hang on a tree or tuck in a drawer. :)
Wow May Britt, how nice! I love the heart. You are a clever girl.
I am looking forward to the tutorial!
I have finally managed to get you on my links list. I spent ages there this morning, muttering threats to blogger!
That is just a darling little heart. I would never have guessed in a million years, but going back I see it now. I'm feeling that I am going to have to try this one on for size. Thank you so much for showing it.
I never would have guessed you were making a heart. It is adorable. I can't wait to see the tutorial on the cosmetic bag. I have some nieces that would enjoy those for Christmas.
No way did I know where you were headed with those pieces! How lovely in the neutral colors.
Wow, how cute is that? What a great idea!
What a cute little heart!
I didn't know what you were going to do with the hexagons and diamonds, it's a great looking heart - very cute.
May Britt, the heart is just charming...thanks for sharing your ideas with us! Can't you just see a few of these in Christmas colors, dangling from the Christmas tree?
Cute heart May Britt :-)
i also had no idea what you were going to make with the hexagons. It's just beautiful. I love the color and i love heart shaped things. I have many things around the home that have hearts on them or are heart shaped. I would like to know how to make one.
NICE! I love that heart!
Oh my, that is so gorgeous and so old-fashioned looking - very very nice!
Your heart is so cute ! Thanks shearing with us. I will try to make one today.
May Britt, I love the heart made from the hexagons. In fact, I love everything made from haxagons. A tutorial would be sooo nice --hint, hint! (Lesa, CQForNewbies_
