More of the Why

Why do I quilt?

Lots of reasons ... One of them is fabric!

The blue fabric with pink roses that my grandmother sent me years ago ...

It has made it into a few quilts lately ...

 

 

The fabric from my favorite red-and-white plaid shirt ... and the ubiquitous golden yellow fabric that never gets gone -- it just seems to multiply ...

 

One or both shows up in each of the quilts in this section ...

 

 

 

 

   

  

   

 

  

 

Recycled shirt fabric ... (Remember my favorite fabric designers?)

 

 

 

 

Cute fabric ...

 

Vintage-y fabric ...

 

 

 

Batiks!
