Of the many quilts I've made.....
...it seems my favorites always end up being....
The ones made from shirt scraps....
Maybe because I know the men who wore those shirts.....
....maybe because they represent frugality. Making something useful out of something tired and worn.
...my son and husband contributed to the above quilts, along with several men who passed away....
...and some men whose wives, wanting to rid their closets of old, worn shirts, donated them to the local Goodwill store. Or, at least I imagine that is how they ended up there....
...so yes, those are my favorites. I see them as timeless. What are yours?
