    Wonderfully done! The curves may have been tricky buy you sure did a great job with them. Your points match up wonderfully where the pieces all come together. I love how you laid out the colors too.

    OH, the shirts are 100% cotton. In the thrift store only buy the 100% cotton ones, and not too worn!

    Hi briskgo, I've got a Fiskars Fuse Creativity Sistem, works great with all sizes of accuquilt and sizzix dies with shims (I use cardboard envelopes). The machine is great and less expensive than an Accuquilt Go! If you like, there are more pics in my blog (the link is in my signature below the post I hope I'm not breaking any board rule saying that ).

    Those are really great looking. You can get so much material very inexpensive at yard sales and thrift shops. Good job.

    Nice quilt with the plaids, I am doing one by hand of real 1930 prints. By 'real', I mean not reproductions.
