Do you have a pattern for your border, it is just beautiful with your grandmother flower garden quilt.

They have hexagons of many different sizes and are cheap. If you order, request one of their catalogs. It is full of ideas!

Thank you so much for this link! I once started a hexagon quilt, but it was too much - eventually finished up as a cushion!! I was seeing hexagons in my sleep! This site sounds like the right way to go.

I am working on my 2nd GFG, and planning #3 in my head while I stitch!

That is a really cool site! Thanks for posting. I never thought of using hexagons for anything other than GFG's. The one I started many years ago bored me to tears. I don't know why.
