a bit of info:

...made from polyester dresses from the sixties, bought for a quarter apiece, cut up into

squares and machine sewn together, store-bought pale pink polyester yardage for the

border, and tied with mulitcolored yarn. Backing is a baby blue sheet cut to fit, then

brought around to the front as binding. Quilt finished in 1996 and measures 5' square.

and their colors are always bright and cheery}
