I found this at a garage sale this morning for $20. It is all hand pieced. She had several other old tops from $8 to $20, but felt I could only get one. This was my favorite! Love the yellow setting blocks!

What a lot of work has gone into that top. I wish I could bring myself to like hexagons but I can't, but I do appreciate the work in them, I just do not want to cut out all those papers, and the when it is all finished, take the out again.And yet, all my quilts are hand quilted, and I do not care how long it takes me to do it, I just love the process

It is beautiful! Great find. I have never found anything sewing related at a garage sale around here. You are lucky :)
