I arrived at the retreat in Sisters with a bunch of old clothes--shirts and a Laura Ashley dress from 1980. I went for "liberated squares" as well, fitting in the nice details from the yoke of the dress. Then I noticed that the label of the shirt said "Port Authority" which seemed the perfect addition for a quilt made while hanging out with a bunch of Seattle-ites. These guys are really fun and all very focused workers. It was a great 2 days away from the routine!!
Thanks Bonnie for this documentation. It brings back the fun of the workshop. The polka dots are you quilt back?? or border?? or both.
