    I love the creativeness with your quilt. It's amazing what we can do with what we find isn't it? Very nice.

    Very nice quilt! I especially like the labels - I used to shop in Marks & Spencer when we lived in London.

    Beautiful quilt .... never thought about saving the part of the shirt with the labels to put in the quilt.

    I, too, love the labels: so unique. You did a great job recycling. Can't wait to see it quilted.

    I love your quilt! Reminds me of a light summer cottage quilt. Very cute!

    Many, many years ago, there was an article in one of the craft magazines about "Namedroppers." You were supposed to save the labels from shirts, coats, hats, whatever and use them in craft projects. I think you've taken that idea to a whole new level. The use of the labels on your quilt certainly adds a touch of whimsy. It almost becomes an "I Spy" quilt, doesn't it? Thanks for sharing!
