Default Red, White & Blue Flower Hexies

You people aren't safe now that I have discovered how to upload pictures! Hehe
This is a quilt top that was given to me about a year ago. The man's wife made it and after she passed away he wanted to get rid of all her quilts and UFO's. I was given 3 tops and 3 quilts, one which still needed a binding. Anyway, this quilt top has all the hexes basted on and just needs to be appliquéd down, borders added and finished up. I have no idea when it was made but there are some age spots on it. The muslin background is a heavier weight than I have seen.
