Apron memory quilt
Suggestions, opinions, ideas......want to make a quilt from my deceased mother-in-laws aprons.....I have 6 aprons and plan to use one of them as a panel.....fabric is like feed sack prints.
Will probably just cut fabric into squares or rectangles & place around the main panel.....any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone! Thought about doing a Dresden plate design.....maybe....please give me your thoughts |
It would help more if you posted a couple of photos of the aprons.
|
A Dresden would be beautiful. Any 30's design would be pretty.
|
There are some really cute pieced apron block patterns on the web, it might be cute to use aprons in apron blocks.
|
If she used the aprons a lot, there may be grease stains in the center that you need to cut around. That is a good reason to choose blocks that need smaller pieces, like dresden plate.
|
I think would make apron blocks, either applique or a pieced one, great idea, I love memory quilts made from any type of clothing or ties or whatever!!!
