"August Gingko" - Patchwork Collection
In-stock, ships in 3-5 business days.
This colorway is based off a submission from Maja of @athomewithmm. Here is the description that they included:
“When I got married, we took pictures in a plaza lined with ginkgo trees; a few months later, I got a ginkgo leaf tattoo (my first!), both because I've always loved how they look and because I knew we'd be moving soon and wanted to get the tattoo that would remind me of my wedding in the same town where it took place. A longtime family friend made this quilt as a wedding gift, and I don't know if she'd seen wedding pictures and made the connection or if it was a total coincidence, but when I saw the ginkgo leaf design on the border, I cried. I would have always treasured this just because of the love and care and craft that went into it, but the image that evokes such a cherished memory so strongly that I put it permanently on my body also being woven into the fabric just makes it a million times more special to me.”

All skeins are individually dyed with acid dye, washed and rinsed, however some bleeding may still occur. Each skein is unique and therefore colors may vary slightly from one to the next. Due to monitor differences, actual colors may also vary from what is shown. I recommend handwashing in cool water.
