Reproducing this crib quilt

This little crib quilt is housed at the Greene County Historical Museum.

And these are my hexagons I will use in my copy.

  1. So pretty!
    Questions...questions...What size are your hexagons? How are they set into the background on the original...is the background all hexagon pieced as well?
    Looking forward to following your progress.
