The finished quilt is hexagonal and the sides are 90cm (35.5") every patterned hexagon is different and stitched...yes by hand!...to a plain centre - some of these are duplicated :-(
It took a few years to collect samples from the various companies, they sent out real fabric in those days but sometimes the pieces were just too small :-(
It was a mad undertaking but it kept me out of mischief, has many memories incorporated into it thanks to the fabrics coming from scraps left over from making clothing by both myself & my mum.
And no I don't take orders! I used to make machined duvet covers but not hand stitched ones :-)
Hope you like this share.
Wow, this is absolutely amazing! Couldn't do it at that tiny scale! Awesome!
