Editorial Reviews

Review

Looks like you will need a trip to the charity shops for the use of this book, which instructs you how to turn vintage tablecloths into quilts. I am a little unsure of how many of these tablecloths you may be able to track down, but then the concept is transferable to any type of vintage fabric. You may even have one or two of your grandmother’s tablecloths stashed away. I started a project using old embroidered cloths from the 30’s, but then ran out of source material. If, however, you have access to these vintage tablecloths then it is a fascinating use of recycled fabrics and, of course, a very individual and personalized end result. –Fabrications Quilting For You Magazine; February/March 2013 Issue
