5 yard Quilt from Houston Show


At Houston I picked up a 5 yard bundle which came with a pattern.  In bold letters the pattern yelled, "DO NOT WASH THIS FABRIC".  "DO NOT TRIM UP THIS FABRIC".  

The reasons for the big bold warnings was because there is exactly enough fabric to make this twin sized quilt out of the 5 yards.  I mean- exactly.

I put huge feathers all over it and I'm doing the binding now.  My mom says it looks like my grandfather's old bathroom decor- you know, retro.  I'm pretty sure she meant it as a compliment, though.

I picked up one of those bundles when I was down there two years ago. ...Sadly...mine is still in the bundle.
Your fabrics are very retro...very pretty.
