Scraps and Strings: Barbara Brackman and me

Saturday, 12 February 2011

For the past year, I've been working on this modern floral quilt as a joint project with my mother.

We cut into our hand dyed stash and made a variety of flowers

based on this simple pattern I saw on Barbara Brackman's website.

I sent her a photo of our project

and today she's featured this quilt in progress on her blog, along with a bit of history. check it out!
