Well I think you ought to start off with ess!

PS love the central panel and the border fabric!

Hmmm...what about lines through the middle of the hexagons, so you get a hatched look?
Could be with the serpentine stitch also

Hmmmm.. . .what about a continuous curve in those hexies?

since hexagons are now the biggest thing, I hope that some of you have quilted a hexagon quilt before. I have a panel surrounded by a pieced hexagon border, then another border outside of that. I know how I will quilt the panel and the outer border, by machine and following the designs. The hexagons are hand pieced so there is no ditch. I'm stumped as how to quilt this part of it! Pretty sure that hand quilting 1/4 inch in from the seams is not going to happen .

This quilt was in one of those BH&G shop sampler mags a couple of years ago. they used what looks like a machine embroidery design inside each hexagon. That doesn't really strike my fancy, and also I couldn't do it anyway (no embroidery machine!).
I'm attaching a picture but it has to be in JPEG format so I'll be back
Any ideas welcome!
