Lov...I enjoyed your story. You tell a tale well. <br />Love the part about the 18 y/o who was inspired by you and got hers done for the fair. <br /><br />I also have 2 unfinished EPP projects. Each time I pull them up and start again, I remember previous times with needle in hand--waiting time in a hospital, long miles in a car, a granddaughter helping to match the parts of gramma's flowers. <br />You have a lot done. It will get finished.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255216150275846123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-89050933890601632482011-08-02T02:06:58.347-06:002011-08-02T02:06:58.347-06:00My heaxagon-story is rather the same as yours........My heaxagon-story is rather the same as yours......... :))<br />I also have started many years ago and I'm still working on my LIW-project whenever I'm out of the house.......waiting for the (grand-)children; at the doctor or any place that would fit it.......<br />My top is growing little by little........

When I am shopping with a friend and we see packages of those hexagon papers she always teases me and says that I should buy just another package so I have plenty to finish my project. I also have a stack of finished blocks that my Mom left me to make a quilt for my daughter.....someday. But, how wonderful that you inspired that young girl to keep working on her project and even hand quilt it. I hope that she won a ribbon.LuAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10805705253087258631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-81423912693885790002011-08-01T12:43:33.230-06:002011-08-01T12:43:33.230-06:00I watched a fellow quilter on a bus making hexies ...I watched a fellow quilter on a bus making hexies and learned the shortcut way to stitch them.
