Design Source - Description | I made this quilt as a high school graduation gift for my niece. I like how the brightly coloured tumbling blocks stand out vividly against the grey background. I connected all of the hexagon points with a curved, interlocking quilting pattern which created six-petal flowers all over the quilt. It took ages to do but it finished the quilt off just right so I'm glad I persevered. |
