This quilt was a long-term project for me. I started basting these scrappy hexagons after finishing my Kingfisher quilt (that was such a fun project). I'm guessing I possibly started this around 5-6 years ago.
This became my go-to travel project. Car trips (while husband drove) or waiting for kids in the car. This project travelled with us to US holiday and a cruise to Mexico back in 2019 and I think it may have even gone with us to Europe in 2018. We drove right across the south of England and I remember having my hand sewing during that adventure.
English paper piecing is just so wonderfully portable. You don't need a lot of supplies to put the hexagon flowers together, or even to applique them to the background squares.
