These were given to me by an elderly lady from church, as you can see they are very old and there are 80 of them. I do feel blessed. :-D The last pic is one I am working on.

80 of these gems

You took the hexagons and created the quilt top in the last photo? You are a genius! The white fabric around the hexagons is exactly what the quilt needs to give the bright colors some breathing room. (I think it's called "white space" in the print industry.) Your friend at church is going to be so pleased when she sees what you did with the hexagons.

This is gives me an idea of what to do with the squares I inherited from my husband's grandmother. . .

Ahhhhh. Well, now you've got me on tenderhooks to see what you do with those church lady hexagons. I soooooooooo want to see what you do come up with. Those hexagons are a piece of living history (reminds me of many, many older quilts).

Your quilt top is BEAUTIFUL!! The blocks from your church lady are too!! Put them together just like yours with a solid color(maybe even use white like yours or a very pale pastel color). I can't wait to see what you decide!
