quilt

Originally uploaded by craftscout

This is the beginnings of a quilt for DD for the holidays. It is made from a large stash of her clothes from when she was three years old. Yeah, for some reason, almost all of her clothes that year were purple or turquoise . . .

There is a backing fabric stitched to it, lavender with tiny white polka dots. I think I did remarkably well keeping my lines straight since this is done almost entirely with KNITS. Bah . . .

Actually this is about 3 days work. One day fussy cutting all the squares out of the clothes. The next day sewing the strips and pinning the backing fabric to the batting. Then the third day was sewing the strips onto the batting/backing. Probably about 12 hours into the project so far.
