A quilt for a much loved granddaughter

It was reported that there were some tears shed as this beautiful quilt parcel was opened and lovingly inspected. Sue’s Instagram caption tells some of its story and inspiration:

There has been some secret sewing going on here over the past few years getting this one ready for the special birthday of my much loved granddaughter. Some of the hexies reference her life so far, some have hopes for what life might hold. Inspired by a quilt made by @lyn_quilts2 and designed with the help of @msg47. Some of the backing fabrics bought on my fabulous trip to Japan with @sewmiriam, who patiently helped with the border choice conundrum 🤣 Hand stitched and quilted through some good and bad times. I was very pleased when it made its way across the country in the post and was warmly received 😊
