“LEMON SCENTED” by Sharon Hancock



I hand sewed these paper pieced hexagons together over a period of about twelve years. The fabrics are now very old fashioned. I did enjoy the process of sewing tiny little pieces of fabric together by hand, but I am not in a hurry to do another. Hand pieced & hand appliquéd with machined borders.

Professionally CUSTOM machine quilted by Sally McKenzie of Valley Quilts.

I will add descriptions for the quilts below when I get time.
