Wasn’t impressed with most of the fabric – very thin. Then I saw the Grandmothers Flower Garden that is in the picture - 26 completed units. It is all hand sewn (Not EPP) and I got to talking to the owner. She didn’t think she would ever get them together but said if I promised to that I could have them. FREE!! OOOKKKKAAAYYY – I don’t hand sew, but I will try. Went onto GramE’s Inklingo to see if they had the right hexie pattern. I had some thin muslin which matched the weight of the fabric and printed out some hexies. Will take them with me on my trip to MD where I will watching 2yo GD for 10 days. And when I get back my mom is having her other shoulder totally replaced so I will be with her and can hand sew there. ….We shall see how this really works out 
