Another Kind of Grandmother's Flower Garden

I love more than ever the English paper piecing technique. For years I kept saying myself that I don't have enough patience for hand sewing but I was so wrong.
It was a quick project, with only 200 pieces.The sphere is 30'' in diameter.

Your creation is just beautiful and it looks like you have a lot of patience. Are you making a quilt or is this a wallhanging? Either way wonderful.

You do beautiful work. I love it. You are a talented designer.

It will be a wallhanging.

Absolutely gorgeous!
Can't quite tell - did you adjust for the curve, or are all the hexagons the same size?

cindy4857 06-07-2012 02:45 PM

looks like a piece of art work to hang. It is very unusual and very Cool! you did a great job with it.

debcavan 06-07-2012 02:47 PM

Wow, so unusual and so pretty.

Ccorazone 06-07-2012 02:49 PM

Looks sort of like a soccer ball. I love the colors

Maresan 06-07-2012 02:51 PM

Wow, you have patience. I could never do that, and the design is so unique.

Yes, yes, & more yes! This is so cool... old (the flower garden florets) meets new (your setting)! Plus I love your fabrics. Face it, I just love everything about this beauty! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Wow, I don't actually care for the hexagons normally but I love what you created! I keep trying to go out of my comfort zone and this has given me the inspiration! I agree with everyone above, your work is truly wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

The Fusions look fantastic! Now I know what to do with a ton of Fusions scraps I have. And I see some colors I wish I had in my stash....

I really like this! I have been working on my hexies for a little over year...can't wait to start assembling them!
