vintage dresses into a baby quilt?



found these two vintage dresses at my local thrift and decided they would make a great quilt for my future granddaughter.

super psychedelic fabrics in a cotton pique waffle weave. gave them a good wash and dry, grabbed my seam ripper and started taking them apart. the darts were the hardest darned things to remove...making me remember what a perfectionist i was at sewing darts back in the 60's.

i will be posting pictures of my progress with this quilt if you are interested in following along.
