    ““I made my kids’ old Vilebrequin bathing suits into a quilt. I love to look at it to remind me of so many happy beach memories together. I can picture my kids in every little pattern suit I see on the quilt. (The navy gingham suits were my favorites). This craft would work really well with any type of cotton clothing, from jeans to other fabric scraps. Bonus points if there is something sentimental about it!””
