SIA Inspiration: Elizabeth Shippen Green
Posted: February 28, 2022 Filed under: Style Imitating Art | Tags: style imitating art 1 CommentIt’s Terri’s turn to host SIA, and here’s her pick:
This is “The Thousand Quilt” (1900), an illustration by Elizabeth Shippen Green, an American illustrator. Terri was drawn to it due to the mother/daughter theme and the handing down of the fiber arts from generation to generation. There are certainly a lot of colors and patterns here to play around with. I have no idea what I’m going to wear yet, but I’m excited to experiment. Don’t forget to send your outfits to Terri (meadowtreestyle@gmail.com) by next Tuesday, March 8th (it’s also International Women’s Day, so that’s super fitting!)
I am really excited for this one! I found the most perfect sweater in Asheville during my road trip!
