I spent the weekend working on a rack of ribs.
Because I needed to be able to manipulate the whole set while designing the quilt, each piece was cut out with a muslin backing, sewn then turned right side out. The ribs are all sewn in place, but the spine sections just pinned.
The reason for all of that, is that the whole quilt is designed around this t-shirt.
It was cut off my buddy Boomer when he had his heart attack.
Fortunately he survived the ordeal.
He and his wife have been helping me design this quilt with all of his favorite things.
In the style of Day of the Dead.
