The last quilt challenge was to do represent a proverb in fabric... while in Minnesota I search through thick books of proverbs putting my favorites down on note cards. This one kept coming to the top of the pile...maybe it was the challenge of taking paper piecing to the extreme or possibly it was the theme... being dyed in the wool tea totaler the topic was beyond my expertise... The proverb is from Kansas in the early 1800's
"Save your bottles it might rain whiskey" The edges of the quilt are not finished with binding allowed it to fray, as part of the label this thought was added by me "When you drink to gain inventory your quiltings are bound to suffer"... my husband thinks it should hang in a wine shop :) K
