Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt

I'm slightly insane in that I've started another quilt project.

Technically I started this back in November just after I finished sewing the table runner.

I love hand piecing hexagons. (Some day I'll branch out to other shapes.)

They make good take-along projects.

Perfect for the spare time I have after work before we leave the school.

Project box all labeled and filled with stuff for my quilt.

I'm thinking of a grandmother's flower garden quilt.

I quickly made a mock up on the computer.

My goal is lap sized.

I decided to use the large stash of cut squares I found at the thrift store.

I'm making them in small bunches at a time.

If I stick to my original mock up, I'll need 100 flowers.

That's 700 hexagons in flowers alone!

This was the first flower I made.

Only 99 more to go.

It wasn't until after I made several flowers that I realized I should be quilting my table runner.

So I've reluctantly put these aside until the Confetti Runner is quilted.

But once it's done...
