We have been so busy trying to get settled in ( from the move ) and unearthing some fun little treasures.
My husband came in with a black trash bag that was all covered with dust and some NOT so lovely things, and said, ” I think this is full of some old fabric” I quickly tore a whole in the side of the bag and found LOTS of fabric some in great shape and some in not so great shape.
As I continued to dig and rummage through, I finally made my way to the bottom of the bag only to find a white grocery bag all tied up in knots. Inside were these Lovely little Hexagons that I had cut up 11 yrs ago. (YIKES!!!!)
It looks as though my intentions were to make or should I say TRY to make a Grandmother’s Flower Garden Quilt. Now mind you I am not a quilter, at least not a professional one that is.
Even so this was a very SWEET surprise.
And…
With a baby girl soon on the way
Why not….
Blessings,
Angelina

They would make such a cute quilt. My grandmother was a quilter. Seeing these reminded me of her.

Oh- I can’t wait to see THAT! What a find after all these years…and you had to move to find it….lol…sounds like MY life! My grandmother ALWAYS made that particular pattern of quilt…that and the double wedding ring. I have a piece of one she was quilting when she passed over. Blessings to you- hope you had a great day- xo Diana

Yes, it was such a treat to find these after all this time. It is AMAZING at the things that are being unearthed…
What great fabric! That will be so pretty, can’t wait to see what you do with it. Just sent you another email with a pic. Crossing my fingers that it gets to you!
I am SO glad your back!!
Oh yes, you have to make a flower quilt…I know you can do it you are such a great seamstress! I have never quilted either, I don’t think I would have the patience, but would love the results!

wow, those are going to make the most BEAUTIFUL girl quilt. very very nice fabric. i just love what seen so far. looks a bit vintage…..
As much as I LOVE quilting, for some reason I’ve never made hexagons! Your quilt looks like it will be lovely! (I didn’t know y’all had moved….I must have somehow missed it!)

What a fun surprise! I’ve always loved that pattern. My mom started a quilt as you go grandmother’s flower garden years ago. I was fascinated! Now I have got to call her and see what she did with that. I love those florals, and I can’t wait to see the finished project!

Well, you look like you are off to a great start on it with the hexagons already cut out, Angelina! I’m hoping to try one of those rag quilts that I’ve seen recently, but I want to clear up the projects I have going on now. Those fabrics are really pretty and it’s going to make a lovely quilt.

Lovely fabric and ideas there! I have a half-begun quilt (6 years in the making), am not a quilter but hope to finish it too. It is made with vintage hankies… One day the dream will bear fruit I hope! What a lovely blog you have. I will need to take a peak around. I am visiting from the Country Momma Cooks link up ~ nice to meet you

I love the fabric. I’ve never braved a hexie quilt before, but I’m sure it will be beautiful. I’ve never seen one that wasn’t.
