Old School

 My sister pieced this top and calls it old school. She says that is the new word instead of vintage.  haha

The squares are from men's shirts that I had. She asked me if I had some plaid shirts, so I gave her all I had and this is what she made.

Since it was "old school", I quilted Xs across the blocks.

I could not figure out what I wanted to do in the border, so I just did lines and curves.  We'll call it Picasso meets old school. haha

The back is a mottled blue wide back. It is darker than my camera shows.

It is about 62 x 75". 

It went pretty fast. She won't get it for a couple weeks. She says she will have

another one (or two) to take back home with me to quilt for her.
