My Purple Flower Garden


Happy Saturday my sweet friends.

Look what I pulled out of hiding again, just can not seem to stay on task with this quilt.  I think I started making the flowers like over 5 years ago.  Last night while watching TV I finished this flower.   When I decided I wanted to make a Grandma's Flower Garden quilt I picked out a bunch of 1930's purple and lavender fabric's.  Imagine that lol.  I was feeling lucky last night when I saw I had some flowers petal's already basted.  YEAHH!  I am using the English paper piecing method and I found a gillion of the papers in my basket just waiting for fabric. 


Thought you might want to see the little bunnies on there purple air plane.


Well, I thought I had way more of  the flowers finished.  But all I can find are 5.  This is what I decided I will do at night while watching TV with my sweet hubby.  What do you like to do while you watch TV?

Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs
donna

  9. I have got a hexie project like that as well.... It's been in its plastic container for 5 years and every once in a while I go through my scraps and my new fabrics to make some new flowers. To be honest, I am dreading the moment that it is time to sew them together....
    I do think this quilt is going to take forever!
    Good job, picking it up again. Hexie flowers are cute!
