Old spools, old quilts, old ticking, old buttons, memories in old clothes. What’s not to like?
Put them all together in a new format. Unroll to see fresh delight every time.
It seemed a perfect place to collect some old reds and make a Valentine’s project.
The old quilt was soiled and tattered, tan and white with red accents. I love that the indigo dye subtly changed the backgrounds, but left the reds RED.
The unfurled piece measures 7” x 30”.
I love the rolled format for story quilts. The first one I did is the one above. And, I’m working on another one now. It has hearts on it, too.
