The featured quilt in the November 28, 2010 edition of the Start Your Week With a Quilt newsletter is called Fashionable Feathered Friends, and it was created by Bessie Barnett. I just love these girls!
Bessie appliquéd each block to create the chickens and the high heel, etc. However, the embellishments on this quilt make it special. A close inspection of one of these girls reveals she went to the nail salon and got herself some acrylic nails!
I am sure this quilt tugs at the heart of all of us old girls who love to dress up and hit the town!
