Ok so this is an off question I guess. I loved reading about the lil boys britches quilt. I have been looking for one to buy. When I was a little girl I lived with my grandma and grandpa. She made quilts and this was my favorite! When my grandpa passed away she remarried. Unfortunately. But when she passed he sold all of her quilts. I tried to get someone to make one but they said it was too complicated and they had never even heard of it before me. I know this is a long conversation and for that I’m sorry.
Glad you enjoyed the post! You know, you could always make your own version of your grandma’s quilt. There’s a modern tutorial here: https://grandmotherschoice.blogspot.com/2012/11/12-little-boys-breeches-dress-reform.html?m=1
That pattern first appeared in the Kansas City Star newspaper in 1934 and was the very last quilt pattern they reprinted in the paper in 1961. Good luck!
Talk to me, Baby! I LOVE hearing from my readers! I read and appreciate every comment I receive. If you ask a specific question I'll do my best to respond to you, but I am not able to respond to every single comment I receive due to multiple demands on my time and only so many hours in the day. I appreciate you and your feedback. Thanks for visiting!
