First we all made name badges:
I spent the rest of my time hand piecing this quilt:
It is pieced over paper the traditional way and I use tiny whip stitches to put the hexagons together.
I have been working on this quilt for about 3 years now, on and off and reckon I have done thousands of hexagons so far. I just have the edges to complete and it is finished. Then it will be quilted and I will bind the edges.
It will be approx 6'6" wide and 7'6" long when completed.

OMG! that is just stunning. I am in awe.
Absolutely gorgeous! Done some of that myself, so I know very well just how much work you have put in.
An heirloom.
Keep on going, I'm longing to see the finished article. By the way the wine is just delicious, reminds me of summer pudding.
That quilt is gorgeous. It will be well all the effort when it is finished.
