I’m guessing I started sewing when I was in the 4th or 5th grade. But my first patchwork happened when I was in 7th grade. I made this pillow cover as a visual aid to a math project. I’ve got the project paper around somewhere. This was another find as I opened up a box of stuff that I’m not taking to Mississippi.
This quilted pillow cover was also in the box. I’m dating this one to 1980 based on the inner border.
It’s the same fabric that I used in my first quilt.
Both of these pieces are going with me.
