Scrap Happy Provençal Quilt backing October 2021
Strip
I have been working on a quilt since January 2020, making one block a month, and using scraps of fabric bought in Provence – my mother-in-law bought some in the 1960’s and 70’s, I bought others there in 2010.
My mother-in-law died about three weeks ago, and though Alzheimer’s had taken away her ability to plan and make quilts she never stopped enjoying looking at these blocks with me. She would comment on which she liked the best and which she thought didn’t work so well, while managing never to criticize. This quilt is imbued with memories of her generosity; quilting enthusiasm and talent; and the fun we had with fabrics.
