What a fantastic quilt, made from reclaimed family clothing ! We love the giant flowers and colorful butterflies. Flowery half-Dresden plates adorn the borders.

Childhood Memories by Caroline Ellermann, quilted by Glenda Davis
Caroline Ellermann says, "The quilt was created from my granddaugher's childhood dresses. A larger quilt for my daughter-in-law was made with the Garden Party pattern and t his quilt emerged from four left over blocks." Pattern source: The Garden Party pattern by Laura Heine, which was modified.
A kaleidoscope effect was created in the border by fussy-cutting the fabric for the Dresden plates.
Check out the Tula Pink squirrel, and the broderie perse flowers, in the closeup photo below!
Also, Glenda Davis did a beautiful job with the quilting.
