The fun addition first: I found these little “PS I love you” tags at Studio Stitch and bought a bunch of them to add to quilts I’ve made for our daughter’s family. After some debate about how to attach them, I decided on having them stick out a little over the binding, like this.
I love these tags! Now I’m going to attach them as I put on the binding when I make quilts for special people.
I seem unable to resist floral print fabric, so in a recent attempt to use some of it I made another floral lattice quilt. You can find my instructions here if you want the pattern.
One of the fun things about this iteration of the quilt is that the cream-background fabric shown below is scrap from a dress I made for myself years ago. That dress, along with several others, was given to a visiting psychologist from Russia whom I met at a conference. Again, many years ago. I like to think of those dresses travelling to another country and being enjoyed there.

Beautiful!
Thanks 😊
I love the tag addition idea and oh my goodness that is wonderful that one of the scraps has an awesome history! That is a beautiful scrap quilt!
Oh yeah! I remember this pattern. It inspired my creation “Bright Delight”. Your post offered up the solution on how to deal with that specific African fabric!

I do like your grey pattern fabric lattices here. They really pull together the scrappy blocks into a certain arty/homey/moody feel.
Your floral lattice is everything a quilt should be.
Thanks, Mariss
Cute little tags! I have some too, though mine have my handle on one side and my name on another. No message. I find I used them mostly in bags, purses, and totes. That’s a pretty lattice quilt, and I love the sentiment and memories in the prints. Lovely.
Thank you!
