I have about 5 completed so they go much faster then the small flowers. Plus I am using a moda glue stick to make the pieces before I hand sew. I saw that idea in Paducah. I decided to continue hand basting my fabric to my small hexies so before I croak I will have at least one totally hand quilted quilt!
