Very pretty. I am working on a scrappy quilt with a well-used flannel sheet on the back.

I love your quilt and I would never know the backing was originally curtains. Nice job recycling.

Your quilt is beautiful and the curtain backing is a perfect match. Cute story about your sister's dress!

Been there, done that. Made a quilt for DD out of dining room curtains. She said it was like being home again when she used it... I couldn't ask for a better compliment

Fun Story! When we redecorated my DD's room, I took apart her old curtains... yards and yards of purple fabric. I've been using them as FMQ practice pieces.
