This beautiful blanket is made from forty African flower hexagons that are sewn together to form a natural edge for the chevron pattern. The blanket is worked in strips of flowers and chevrons that are stitched together. There’s no rule that says each flower has to be identical: rearrange the color order to let your style shine.
