luvspaper

I made it from my oldest sister's wedding dress for her. It was basically a whole cloth with the train appliqued and then other appliques made from other parts of her dress. I did (after this picture and advice from a mentor) go ahead and tack down the middle of the train.

This is definitely a heirloom quilt and isn't very usable because it so heavy and I used wool batting, so it is not washable. But it did turn out beautifully and she loved it. I made her cut up her dress and send it to me in pieces.
