These were hand quilted many years ago in Laura Ashley fabrics, which used to be sold in conveniently cut packs. It made hexagons so much easier! I have decided to dissect them and turn them into more modern pieces - such as nostalgic cushions. My preference now is for more colourful designs such as the lovely (my favourite) quilt here:

My Favourite Quilt
This piece is in a Moda Fabric by the designer  Lila Tueller called Santorini and I am today making a tote bag in this same fabric. The tutorial should be here by tomorrow ... so watch this space.
