That is the date on the newspapers between the rows of this waiting to be quilted beauty.
I was wondering what the pinned note to them was:
7 foot 8 blocks
6 foot 1 half 7 blocks 1 half
3 foot 8 blocks
is there a pattern to putting this together?
Should I just lay it out and piece it together?
Is this Grandmothers Flower Garden?
Here is another stack that is not finished
and a cute start with a metal box full of little cut squares sorry about the rug color that is the new rug my daughters picked for the wood floor in their room
A little love on any project can make things happen. |

some notes only make since to the person who origannly figured out he lay out.
grandmothers flower garden should be hand stitched together or mounted ( applicaed) (sp) to a foundation block then those stitched together either way it will more than like take hand work. Yes it is a version of grandmothers flower garden looks to have a double path around the flowers meaning each block finishes with the same color so when you sew them together you get a double wide border around all the flowers. Traditional way of doing it. if you still have orginal fabric you can make a border but first I would look at the pieces all layed out on the floor and see if there is a secondary pattern you like with out the border then decided which you prefer.
last one is trip around the world.
second one is called pinwheel and or whurly gig
have a lovely day and may God bless you and keep you safe
