Sleeping Cloths from India

I was asked to make a quilt out of two sentimental pieces of sleeping cloth from India. Moto has had these for a while. Since she is moving back to Canada she wanted to continue to use them & have them made into a quilt. They are well loved pieces and are a cotton blend that feels like a very soft gauze fabric. We aren’t sure the fabric content but they quilted up beautifully.

The center shows some fading but they are beautiful one of a kind prints. Both sides are similar but not exact. I was happy to find a nice fabric for the binding.  It was a fun project & I am thrilled that she loved the outcome. The quilting design is “Herbology” by Hermione Agee. I used a matching color thread & Hobbs 80/20 batting.
