    The Bee's make a cute center for the flowers.

    I was surprised at how many I've made, especially in the last week! I'm printing out the hexagons, cutting them out of the plain xerox paper, using a fabric glue stick to form the fabric around the paper and then basting them either by hand or machine and finally hand sewing the hexs together. I thought it would take forever, but it's going much quicker than I thought.

    It will be beautiful when you are finished. You could make pillow covers with some of the extras or put some on the backing fabric.

    Two quilts is the solution. Your quilt is just lovely.

    I love it...looks so antiquish (is that a word)? Did you also make the quilt that is under all the flowers you have laid out?
