    Cassidy is the envy of all her friends. (she was named for a Grateful Dead song) I took generous seams and machine quilted it, so it can go to concerts, the beach, and camping...I wanted her to USE it. She's got some that my mom made her that she isn't allowed to touch until she's 30, so I wanted to give her one that she could drag anywhere.

    Didn't know what to expect when I read the title of the post, but that is fabulous!

    Thanks everyone! It just sort of fell together in one of those perfect storms...no pattern, no measurements (I don't do numbers well...I'm a right brainer)...just cut and sew. I already had the black fabric and the yellow...I just had to get the turquoise and the backing (which is light purple)

    I love your hand dyed blocks and the whole quilt. You did an awesome job. I have seen quite a bit of tye-died T-shirts, etc. lately. Possibly, tye-dying is comming back! I really like the bright colors.
