When I was a kid, my mother and I cut out these hexagons(for my grandmother) from a cardboard template and lots of old worn out cloths and there was my old dress, my aunts blouse, uncle's shirt. They didn't know about things as straight of the grain back then, so any way we could fit the pattern on the material was ok with us. I remember seeing old quilts in museums and they were not perfect but all hand made from scratch. Beautiful scrappy quilt.
Thank you for those lovely memories.
