SOMETHING NEW FROM SOMETHING OLD
Inspiration
I have to admit on first seeing this challenge I didn’t feel inspired at all! I then decided to look and see what it was that I saw that appealed to me. I saw the colours, the squares, the writing and the flowers. Hopefully this quilt comes across as a fresh and contemporary take on a quilt with a sad history that is still inspiring us to create and quilt.
Materials and techniques
