My daughter will LOVE these, she just finished her first REAL quilt(see pics), is married and mom to a 2yr old daughter. She and her husband are into Goth type stuff. This quilt has appliqued coffin shapes and the black and white print is skulls. The backing is fleece with a skull print. Her husband picked out all the fabrics(she did not like working with stretchy velour at all- a great lesson learned!)
She is also a knitter, and I agree, I may have to make her a knitting bag out of the "Knitting Pirates" fabric.
I don't care for or appreciate the skulls theme, but love that my 22 yr old is appreciating fiber and fabric arts and learning skills passed on from her mom and grandmother!
