These hexagons are 1" on each side. I got my papers from paperpieces.com. I punch a hole in the center of each paper, so they are easy to remove with a small crochet hook. I also just stitch at each corner and don't stitch through the papers.

Instead of making the traditional Grandmother's Flower Garden pattern, I'm just going to piece them together with a more random pattern and none of the traditional garden paths. I'm calling my quilt a Granddaughter's Flower Garden quilt.

Here are some of the hexies I have pieced together to make a mini-quilt. Now I just need to figure out how to best applique this piece onto my background fabric. Then I plan to hand quilt it.

Your hexies are gorgeous! Great idea to punch a hole in the middle - don't think I would have thought of that!!
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely-I love the solid flowers that jump out from the prints around them.
ReplyDeleteAhh, yes, hexis are addicting! Yours is so bright and pretty. Keep at it and it will be done.
