Oder than dirt star quilt
#17
Well, you say that "in those days" they cut all the pieces separately. I have to confess that - being an ignorant newbie - that's exactly what I did about 4 or five years ago with a lone star for a baby quilt! I wasn't even aware that bias could be a problem I hand pieced and hand quilted it. And I did the same with fabrics as your mom a few decades earlier: There was not one piece of "real" quilting fabric on it (didn't have that back then). It was all cotton, but part of it was from old bedding, part from a table cloth, part from a shirt... you get the picture! Turned out quite nice, though, and was much loved by the recipient!
