I hand pieced the center grandmother's flower garden hexagons using English Paper Piecing. The next border in the medallion quilt is made using Karen Stone's Lady Liberty paper piecing method. I then added some more hexagons, Double Pinwheel blocks, and lots of Flying Geese. I used a variety of prints and batik fabric.
I loved quilting this - I used Aurifil and Superior Threads So Fine.
I photographed this at the Seattle Art Museum.
I love your quilt. I am starting a medallion quilt and wanted to use some old grandmothers flower garden blocks from my grandmother. Do you mind if I copy your pattern?
