a family affair {WiP}

I chose from a selection of old tablecloths, tea tray sets & doilies from my mum & Mr D's mum. It was a bit scary cutting into some of them! Once Aunty Freda saw what I was making she wanted to add a couple too! We spent a lovely afternoon together going through all her own special collection.

Careful cutting of vintage fabrics was required - some were quite worn, some were different weights, & some of the fabrics shifted quite a bit. I selected parts that had quite a bit of white around the motif to keep the quilt light & bright, and would also allow for some added quilting texture
