Make Shape 1

There are lots of ways you can construct this first shape, this is how I constructed mine.

Start with the Green hexagon and sew 6 Aqua hexagons around the Green hexagon. 

Use the pictures below as a guide. Make 2 of these hexagon shapes.

Join the two hexagon shapes together with a Navy hexagon as shown in the diagram.

Join 3 Green hexagons together twice as shown in the diagram.

Add a navy hexagon to one shape.

Add these Green shapes.

Add two Green hexagons to the bottom corners, one on each end.

Shape 1 is complete.

Repeat the same process for the following colour combinations.  A total of 6 shape 1.

Joining all the Shape 1 together

Join 2 Cream hexagons together.  Do this 5 times.

Use the diagrams as a guide and sew a cream set of 2 hexagons between the Shape 1 pieces.

Follow the colour order below to make the row

Completing Part 1

Join 3 Cream shapes together 6 times

Join 4 Cream shapes together 6 times
