See Bonnie Hunter's post today for pictures of quilts made from Dan River Mills gingham http://quiltville.blogspot.com/2012/...ver-mills.html
Thank you for giving us Bonnie Hunter's blog, it was really interesting. I love gingham, even put it in one of my first quilts 17 years ago. But now that I use 100% cotton, I was concerned. Guess all of you assured me that I can make a quilt out of it. I have so many colors, it will be a very colorful quilt.
