Love Love Love

1. Passage Quilt (2005, 65" x 61"), made by Sherri Lynn Wood from her mother's evening gowns, everyday clothes, Sunday dresses, nursing uniforms, robes, pajamas and bathing suit.

Passage Quilts = "grief and transition work through improvisational quilt making." More Passage Quilts by Ms. Wood here on Flickr and on her website, where you can learn of here exhibitions and workshops. (via Reference Library)

2. Whole-cloth numbers quilt, made by (Austinite!) Malka out of an IKEA duvet cover:

And that's only the beginning of the amazing quilts she creates, often using her own dyed/discharged fabrics.

3. Netgranny: Pick a Swiss grandma to knit you a pair of socks. (via the Craft Magazine Blog)

I have never heard of the passage quilts. What a nice idea.
Thanks for the links. I'm off to go visit.

I tried to pick a netgranny (such a nice selection!) but the language barrier was too much to overcome. Such a nice thought though! I want a netchef and a netmasseuse too.

Hey, thanks for mentioning my quilt. I was led over here by your quilt that was featured on Sew,mama,sew. Congratulations on that!
