Background

28/02/2009 - This quilt was based on Kaffe Fasset's Shirt Boxes pattern.i made this quilt for my stepfather because he wears a lot of stripy blue shirts. It was one of my very first quilts and i spent days cutting out triangles with scissors because i didn't know i could use a rotary cutter. Still, it was a labor of love. The funny part is that he preferred the backing side and to this day it's upside down on his bed..
