Grandmother's Flower Garden Quilt - Cont'd

All the blocks are ready to be sewn together.  How exciting!
And now for some close up shots of these darling 1930s reproduction fabrics...












After I sew all the blocks together, I will need to remove all the hexagon paper pieces by snipping away the basting stitches (as you can see in the photo above of the back of one of the blocks).  I have not picked out the backing for the quilt yet.  It's the thrill of the hunt finding fabric in fun shops!

    1. Thank you, Lucy. I was told these are 1930s reproduction fabrics. I hope they are because of all the hours that I have put into it!
