Hi all,
I picked up a giant bag of fabric at my local thrift shop. Apparently I stumbled onto another quilter’s hoard. I am sorry that the original owner did not get a chance to finish her projects.
There were some blank quilt tags in there with a quilting guild’s name.
In my haul was a bag of 5” print hexagons, some completely sewn together and some not. I count roughly 55 hexagons (both complete and partial). The quilter had carefully separated the pieces with paper towels so that each complete hexagon was stored with the identical pieces to make a second duplicate hexagon. There was also a plexi template for the hexagon pieces and a template for the complete hexagon (see photo).
In another bag was a stack of 4” triangles and a template, and a third bag held 31/4” triangles (flying geese type). These are in the bottom of the photo. I am unsure if the triangles were intended for the same quilt as the hexagons but they seem to be similar colours.
I would like to finish this project but I have never made a hexagon quilt. Does anyone have any idea what the quilter may have been making based on the pieces? Do I add pieces to make the hexagons into squares?
thanks in advance for the help!
