Bardy's quilt
Bardy was a very dear friend. I was one of his opera dates, and we went to many concerts at Lincoln Center. He passed away a year and a half ago. I was so pleased when his wife asked me if I could make a quilt from his shirts. And here it is! The pictures don't do justice to the fabric, but trust me, the quilt is so lovely.
As I was going through the shirts, I realized that turquoise was a main color. So, Bardy, here you are. I hope that Sue Ellen can curl up under your quilt and feel you there.

Bardy's Quilt
Bardy's wife asked me to make a quilt out of his shirts. He passed away a year ago. He was my dear friend, and I was one of his opera "dates". So here are the first two blocks, untrimmed and then trimmed.
These were rotated which is why the trimmed blocks look a bit different from the untrimmed ones. Not to worry, each set is exactly the same.
