These are some of my Fathers pants. What shall I do with them? I will make a comforter.

Babs, "Father's Pants". Couldn't be more beautiful and heart warming. Not to mention, probably "body warming" too. :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you were doing that with Father's pants. I can't explain the emotions that went through me when I saw the comfort top. Thanks bunches!
ReplyDeleteBarbara, the Father's Pants quilt top is just amazing! When I first saw the photo of you cutting the legs off all the pants, my mind was racing as to how you would do the pattern. I don't think you could have come up with a quilt design that's more perfect than this one! I love it. I didn't make it to the Relief Sale, but I was at Dayton Days with my mom and her baskets and my daughter Hannah and her soap. It was a fun day and they had great sales!
ReplyDeleteLove your "Father's Pants" Comfort! When I saw the pic of you on the floor cutting them apart, my first thought was how much you and your sister Emily look alike!
ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteI just love this quilt pattern for "Father's Pants". Is this one of your own?
It is something like Roman stripe, but not quite. Is the pattern available for purchase?
Thanks for your time.
