Grandmother's Flower Garden

This lovely mosaic quilt may have been truest to the Colonial Revival's idea of reproducing early American quilts, for the mosaic quilt was indeed made as early as the end of the 1700's. Early names for this quilt were honeycomb and mosaic. The most common way Grandmother's Flower Garden were made was with a central hexagon and rows of hexagons surrounding it with an interconnecting row of white or in some cases green for grass. This quilt will be a work in progress. All pieced by hand using mylar hexagons.
