As I was browsing around various blogs containing quilting references, I discovered Jafabrit’s Art and her spectacular Wooden Quilt Kimono.  A coat of many colors!
I haven’t learned yet just how Jafabrit has constructed it.  However, I clicked on the photo and got a close up showing the stitching between the pieces.  This reminded me somewhat of crazy quilt construction.

Fabrics depicting characters from children’s books seem popular with quilters and fabric artists.  They’re also fun to use when making clothing for children, as I did when my daughter was small.
Were any of you brought up on the Dick and Jane reading books in grammar school?  Do you have memories of learning to read when you see these characters?
            
I discovered at, Fat Quarter Shop, fabric with Dick, Jane and Sally.  A current feature is the Sally Look Quilt Kit by Michael Miller Fabrics, for a 50-inch piece, packaged in a collectible Dick and Jane lunch box.
