IN MEMORY OF BEVERLY MORROW

Hello all who view my blog.  It is my pleasure to present to you the art that I created from Beverly Morrow's clothing.   Beverly is the mother of Sally Bartlett, when Sally gave me her clothing she said to make what ever came to mind.  She trusted me to capture the essence of her mom.  While I was interviewing Sally about her mom.  She told me that her mom always wore flowers in her hair and also wore a pin on her blouse.  Beverly also collected tea pots.   I found her clothing to be festive and colorful.  It was a pleasure creating these Texture of Life Quilts in her honor. 

Every quilt has a pin from Beverly's collection of many pins.

The pictures will be presented with what the clothing looked like prior to the seams being undone.
