Dawn Heese of Linen Closet Designs finds inspiration in antique textiles, laces, and trims, but her focus is on using modern tools and fabrics to create quilts that appear as if they're vintage. Dawn mixes muted checks, plaids, and stripes with prints to create quilts that have a classic, timeworn, well-loved look. Using her tips and instructions, you can re-create the quilts to suit your style. Whether you choose an easy patchwork project, take on a stunning appliqué design, or spend time relaxing and hand stitching a wool table mat, with Dawn's expert advice you can capture the same time-honored look to display in your home.
