Fold the fabric along the next edge of the hexagon, be careful not to bend the paper hexagon.

All that's left is to sleep on it. :)

 

I have this tendency to start every other tutorial with a warning about how easy the skill is; and aside from the knitting/crochet patterns, the step to entry really is quite simple and anyone can do it. These hexagon quilt pieces are like the others- if you can sew by hand, you can do it!

 

Now, what you do with them is another matter. I like this hexagon decorated fabric box, and there's potholders and a tote bag, of course. Or "hex jeans". Or go wild and make a whole quilt of hexagons. The method I'm introducing below was created by combining the most common sense of several hexagon tutorials into the easiest possible steps.

 

With the matching thread and needle, sew the edge of the two hexagons together. Be careful to only go through the fabric, and not the paper!

Replace the ring that was on the gear nearest the wires.

Done! Your custom chalkboard paint is now ready to be written on with chalk!

Once you decide how you'd like to lay out your fabric hexagons, plac ethe right side of two neighboring hexagons together, with their edges matching.

Another angle. Frames have been centered with each other, and toetacked into place with wood screws.

1. Soak in soapy water.

2. Transfer to mesh bag and rinse in bathtub.

3. Use laundry basket, lined with towel, to carry to living room.

4. Dump out on towels on living room floor, with fan blowing.

Attach the servo horn. It's splined to the gear, so just position it and push it on.

All finished! Hook the servo up to your microcontroller and give it a test.

When told to go to position 0 (1500µs), it should stop. Less than 1500µs, it should move backwards, and more than 1500µs will move it forwards.

If you find your potentiometer has slipped, test different centre positions until it's completely stopped - you should find it will be stopped at three different microsecond times. Use the central one. Then, the servo will generally go full backwards at centre-200 and full forwards at centre+200.

Attach wheels and have fun!
