A few more quilts from the archives to share with you today. First up is this 25 patch quilt. Not sure if that is the proper name but it works for me. I remember that I was inspired to make this from a very old book that I still own and love called American Patchwork and Quilting published back in 1985! My quilt was made about 20 years ago.
I used it on my kitchen table for a long time and then it went to live with a friend who liked it. This is another quilt I would like to make again.
This next quilt was made from a line of fabric made to look like men’s ties. I believe the designer was Shirley Botsford who wrote a book called, Daddy’s Ties.

That binding took forever. I remember that I made this quilt while we were living in France so it was sometime between 1997-1999. It was donated to some group to take to refugees somewhere.
This next one was another baby quilt, made for one of my hubby’s coworkers in France that had a baby so it was made in the late 90s also. I made several wonky star quilts like this for baby gifts. They were fast and fun.
Linking up with Kelly at My Quilt Infatuation for NTT.



I like them all, and they don’t look out of date at all. Still relevant and happy looking today!
I enjoy looking at quilts you made in the past. So glad you took photos of them before parting with them.
