Quilt as you go hexies

Hello everyone!! My Christmas has started and I thought I would share with you a step by step process of how I make my "Quilt as you go" hexagons. Cut out one large hexagon (outer) in the backing fabric, one smaller hexagon (inner) out of main fabric, and one smaller hexagon (inner) out of wadding. Lay the large hexago
