    Meredith, yes! I'm sorry - I realize now that I never really explained it well online. They all have pieces of a 100 year old quilt as the foundation, and each piece has an embroidered dress on it. Each of those were inspired by a vintage sewing pattern, and from there, I created these 'characters' in my mind - young girls of the era. The year is the pattern printing, and the name is the 'girl' I made the quilt to represent. The quilts are about 15" square, and 18" framed.

    Okay, so now we all know that I like imaginary play as much as my children. ;) I LOVED dreaming up these girls and making them their quilts!
