I like the hex shape. Nothing says it has to be square or round. I think it's very creative - love your colors and patterns! Very pretty!

It's perfect like this, much more interesting than if you squared it.

Very pretty fabric choices! If it were me, I would have only put two rows of fill-in blocks (not three like on the blue) then the green would flow evenly around the whole quilt. Anxious to see it when you're done.

I love the fussy cut patches with the flowers. The quilt top is wonderful

Beautiful...I wouldn't worry about square, different shapes make for interesting quilts. Lovely work!

maybe not square or rectangle. Think it has a shape of it's own. The seam ripper has become attached to my hand lately.. Not Edward Scissor hands but Ell Seam Ripper Hand! hah!
