These are not your grandmother's quilts. We're so glad we discovered Glynis Cotton's work. She's a quilt designer based in the Chelsea Hotel in NYC who recently launched her own quilt collection. The quilts are made of 100% cotton, and combine both new and vintage materials. They're also machine washable. This tree quilt is one of our favorites.
"Each quilt that I make is one of a kind due to the scarcity of my vintage fabrics. On my quilts, I appliqué images of things that dwell in children's imaginations like mermaids, pirate ships and forest creatures," Glynis told us. She also says the images are reminiscent of her 70's childhood.
One of a kind homemade blankets and quilts are unbeatable. The quilt you choose is all yours baby.
We love the fact that Glynis, formerly a magazine editor, created Dandelion so that she could stay home with her two sons, and have a creative outlet. The quilts are available now at her Etsy shop . Take a peak...you can't come away from these uninspired!
