When out of high school I had a job at a dress shop in Boston doing alterations and at that time the shop had sundresses with coulotte legs (full pant leg type) that were not selling. We cut the pant inner seam and stitched a straight seam down center back and center front to make plain skirt to make regular sundresses. I took all the cut pieces and made squares along with pieces of material that I had and made this quilt. Worn out - and is kept in our car for 'emergencies'. Needless to say I have come a long way from this "first quilt"
My First Quilt circa 1962
