A finished Crochet Hexagon Granny's Paperweights Cushion

This is the finished crochet hexagon cushion the pattern is known as Granny's Papperweights or African Flowers. I have added five more hexagons to make a 18" x 18" square cushion. I machine stitched the joined up hexagons to a yellow ruched cotton. To complete I added three colourful buttons, orange, green and pink that complement both the front and back of cushion. The hexagons have not be made smaller to fit size of cushion and so they look good at the back folded over and used for button holes.
