The suitcase blocks have been my "travel" fabric project the past couple of years. I've made suitcases using fabric purchased in places I've visited. Or in a couple of examples, the fabric was gifted to me by someone else who traveled.
One member of our Sew Vintage group moved to Florida last summer. We really miss her in our little group, but have Facetimed with her during one of our recent group meetings. And someone usually sends her photos of what we're working on. Last month she sent fabric so each one of us got a 10" square of a really cute Florida beach print. I used most of my square to make this suitcase block. I can think of Connie each time I see it.
What a thoughtful friend!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun block. It's going to be such a memory filled quilt when you finish all the blocks.
ReplyDeleteThe suitcase block would look good with the car blocks you made several years ago.
ReplyDeletePretty block, how nice it is that she sent you some great fabric!
