A Jacket, A Poncho and a Flannel Shirt

This quilt began with two flannel shirts and a jacket and knit poncho.  The black and white knit is form the poncho. I used the trim of it to trim the edge. The jacket is the purple and it was used to to balance out the flannel shirts.  This was a memory quilt of a friend's parents clothes. I find thee really hard to make because I feel like when the scissors cut the fabric I am tearing a part some one's soul. When its all said and done I am usually very relieved when its completed.
 The completed blanket.


The ruffle.
A little closer before it was completed.  Shiny objects are buttons left from the poncho.



A little closer.
