Design Source - Description | A vintage quilt on eBay was the source for this pattern. The fabrics are entirely gleaned from used (near-new) men's shirts and women's blouses. Even the stripey border is a shirt. I rather like the plain, homey look that these fabrics give the quilt. I machine quilt most of my quilts on this old Singer 15-91. The machine has a vertical bobbin which makes for good tension when moving the quilt around. Of course, it does not feature the computerized length of stitch nor speed control, but it does a reasonably good job for my quilts that are destined for hard use. |
