Diamonds Are Forever, A GKV Quilt

For two years now, I have been involved with the IIDA sustainable quilt forum in Manhattan. This is an opportunity for many design firms to come together, design & fabricate quilts from recycled fabric samples. As designers, we have access to many scraps of drapery & furniture textiles. After a certain amount of time passes, the fabric becomes less useful to us in the office. So instead of throwing away the fabric, we make gorgeous quilts, auction them off, and donate the funds to a charity of choice.

Diamonds are forever was auctioned off this year for $1100. Its simply magnificent!  Here's a picture of the GKV team. I am second from the left. For more info about how to get involved with IIDA NY visit: http://www.iidany.org/home.html
