I wouldn't have the patience to do it this way. I invested in Fiskar hexi punches. They weren't all that expensive. I go to the Dollar Tree and purchase 500 index cards for a dollar. I make TONS of these in minutes. It just depends on personal preference. The way shown here is really good too.😊

Because I don’t have a printer, I’m even more frugal: I punch my 1” hexies using the Fiskar’s “XL” punch from those free cardstock flyers I receive too many of in my mail (usually Realtors’ ads). But I’m finding my punch getting a bit dull from repeated use. And of course you cannot get other EPP shapes like pentagons or triangles or kites or octagons, so Jaynie’s method will definitely work best for those. My Public Library offers some printing services, so I’m going to search the internet for downloads of those shapes and take some cardstock to the Library to have them print some for me. I love the glue-the-edges method she shows to maximize the printed pages, so you can get 4-for-one to cut down on toner costs. Every little bit helps!
@SweetSourMiss9 ай бұрын
Yes sounds much easier - I don’t have the patience to cut them by hand. I’ve owned a die cutting machine for 15 years and have several hexi and diamond dies. Makes it a breeze. I can cut about six hexi papers at a time with one pass through the die cutting machine.

The print one cut several method works great but I don't glue. I staple. Line up the sheets and hang over the edge of a table then staple. In the case of hexies I put a staple in each hexie. As I cut apart I add staples in the inner hexies. No shifting. For the long straight lines I use a metal ruler and an exacto knife. Sure saves money!

I sew them together by hand using the traditional English paper piecing method.
