This quilt was made from clothing patches from the baby's grandmothers clothing that the great grandmother had made.
The great- grandmother had cut the Sue's out and put them in a box. Years later she hadn't done anything with them so put them on their yard sale. I bought the Sue's, machine appliqued them and
made them into quilt. The new baby got the quilt.
The colors were bright so I found some bright material to go with them.
