Norah, What a lovely piece of work! I really like how the smaller hexs look & gives you a better amount of the flowers. Makes it look more antique, I think.

I wish I had done the smaller hexs when I made mine. But I didn't so.. maybe the next one?

Great job!
Riley

Thank you very much Norah, you are very kind! The avatar is one of the quilts I made with all hexs. It was a quilt as you go type quilt. :shock:
Cut out, stuff, then slip stitch together.(I won't try that again, preferring to stick to regular stitching & quilting!)

I do wish I had of made my hexs smaller on the GFG, as said earlier. May I ask what size your hexs are? They are just right! I think my next one will be one made of 1930 Repos.(when I get finished with all these other things! :mrgreen: )
