Description:
Silk Spun Kimonos - Paper pieced from pattern in book, Rich Traditions. I arranged differently than in the book. Most of the fabrics silks are from an antique chest that belonged my great, great grandmother and great aunts who completed a crazy quilt in late 1890's. I put deep blue silk tafetta sashing from scraps of g.g. g'mother's wedding dress. Started to quilt with silk thread, but didn't finish yet. It's hanging in my bedroom. I love the secondary design.
