Innocent?????

I've been working quite a bit on my small GFG quilt. It's quite fun actually. I have a few more flowers finished, but haven't added them yet. I had a little problem last week.
See this kid? Do you think he looks innocent? Um... I'm here to tell you he's not! This is what he did in about 10 seconds alone with my hand pieced quilt.
Yes, as I got up to get a drink he grabbed my scissors and hacked away. He got this hexagon and a corner off the one next to it. Sometimes I have to remember all those times when I didn't have a baby but wanted one more than anything. I try to think about this before I get mad. It helps. I know, I know.... I shouldn't have left him alone with the scissors even though I was in the same room and he was busily driving a truck when I got up. I won't be making that mistake again.

The biggest problem is that I used my scraps. I don't have any more of this fabric and I don't remember what line this is from. If any of you have any ideas please let me know! I will order it online if I can find some. I'd rather just unpick off those two hexagons than the whole flower. The fabric is at least a year or more old.

I haven't done much sewing in the last week. Hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things!

What is it About Hexagons?

I'm beginning to become obsessed. My goal at the beginning of the year was to make at least one block, hand pieced of Grandmother's Flower Garden.I did it and am still going. This one has 1 1/2 inch sides.

I'm making either a hand pieced baby quilt or table runner (we'll see when I decide I'm done). The problem? I don't think I can bring myself to hand quilt it. I tried hand quilting once. I ended up unpicking it and machine quilting the project.

Yesterday I made my first machine pieced flower.

I plan to do another layer of petals, but I haven't decided what color to do yet. I may need some new fabric since most of my 30's is scraps now. I want to make at least a throw size, but hopefully a bed size. I figure this may be one of those quilts that takes awhile. It was so fast to machine stitch. Makes me wonder why I've been avoiding it all these years. It took me about 20 minutes to do this much. By hand it took me two hours do do this much. I can't wait to make more!

I think I've showed this quilt before. It's from quilts, Quilts, QUILTS (but the first edition)it says it was made between 1930-1940 with an unknown maker. Wouldn't her posterity love to have this quilt? I love this arrangement of the hexagons. The ones used in this quilt measure 1/2 inch! It doesn't say how big it is and I'm too lazy to figure it out, but I would like to know!
