Sue's Recycled Checked Shirt Quilt

Sue's Recycled Shirt Quilt

There are many, many beautiful quilt fabrics on the market, but sometimes they just can't beat the feel and look of a recycled shirt quilt.  Sue was inspired to make her first ever quilt from a collection of special checked shirts.  With recycled fabrics, you have to improvise with what is in front of you, but once they become a quilt the transformation can be amazing.

Sue's Recycled Checked Shirt Quilt

On this occasion, Sue chose an up-to-date design, Modern Curves designed by Anita Shackleford, which took the quilt to another level.  Sue also took advantage of Fabadashery Longarm Quilting's binding service to help finish off her project. A very special quilt - and I think there is another in the pipeline!

Natalie's Feed Sack Quilt

Natalie's Feed Sack Quilt

Today I am sharing Natalie's Feedsack Quilt.  Natalie collected some original Feedsack prints and has incorporated them into several of her quilts. Feedsack Quilts? If you want to find out more there is a great little article at Heritage House Quilts website, which explains how printed feedsacks carrying dry goods became a popular marketing idea.

Again, the main purpose of the quilt was to highlight the historical fabrics, so just a simple, low key quilting pattern was required - Popcorn.
