This looks fine to me. What exactly is troubling you? I don't understand "the mittle"

She means in the middle of the block. Where all the seams come together.

Hi
Yes it looks fine, and i made this with the 60 degree ruler, but what i need is a tut on how to avoid the bulk/thickness in the middel/center. Sorry for any wrong words, i hope you understand :)
Should i cut of the tip since i always iron my seams open ??

That right Annika, thank you :)
Re: Help to find a tutorial
There is the technique of snipping threads and swirling.

Re: Help to find a tutorial
There will be bulk in the center of the block - it can be reduced by opening the seams but it cannot be completely avoided in this method.
If you choose to make hexagons using the half-hexie ruler, then it would not be bulky.

Thank you Ladies for the links :)

Hey Lorie-I like that tut. I think it goes real well with the new comerical that SaltnPepper are doing for that insurance company where you "just push it." Guess I need my morning caffeine... :lol:.

I made a block with 12 fabrics meeting in the center. The center was bulky, but I was able to quilt through it with the walking foot just fine. Once it was layered and finished, the bulk wasn't noticeable. You can also use a clean sledgehammer to pound the bulky centers. I tried it on some of the blocks and noticed a little bit of a difference. I did put a scrap piece of fabric over the quilt to protect it just in case.
