One Flower Wednesday and More

Yay! one more flower done. You can read more about the Garden Party at Karen's blog.
I am making my hexagon flowers into a charm quilt. I have made two other charm quilts. I thought I would share this wallhanging with you all. I made this in 1999 when I began quilting. One of the local quilt shops had a group of ladies that met to trade 6 inch squares. Being a new quilter I was so excited each time we met to see so many different fabrics.
Stephanie shared this BOM with me and I wanted to share with you. Little hexagons to make with touches of beads and embroidery. Check it out at Dawn Hay's blog.
With Passion,
Carrie P.
