So....Can you believe how cute this dress is? I can't stand it. It is a vintage find.
I was so inspired by the Gee Bend's quilts lately that I have been working on this quilt.
The fabric is from jeans and the sheet that I did some fabric painting on. Man that sheet was huge, it has lasted through several different projects.
I would like the back to be another quilt. I am thinking something very simple and modern. Something along the lines of Denyse Schmidt's stripe quilts.
After this quilt is finished I hope to start another Denyse Schmidt inspired quilt soon with some of these from my stash and whatever else I find in my rummaging.
