Unbelievable! Beautiful work. Congratulations on completing your quilt.

Your quilt is beautiful, Is the entire quilt hexagons or just the flowers? I can't tell by the picture. I am finishing my grandmothers quilt that she started with hexagon flowers. That is why I was wondering. I had to take the ones that she had together because the material was raveling so bad there was no way I would be able to put it together that way. I am just making the flowers and am going to applique them onto muslin.
