Goodnight Irene Carnation 31709 12

Goodnight Irene by Betsy Chutchian for Moda. Carnation – Dark Pink and White Gingham Checked Plaid.

For Goodnight Irene, inspiration was found in the colors of Chutchian’spaternal grandmothers garden. Irene Powell Reed, born 1897 in Blooming Grove, Texas, was quite a gardener, with a firecracker personality. This collection has designs inspired by flowers: Evelyns Flower Garden, updated to include a purple and green version; Blooming Grove, in pinks and greens; and Lilacs and Roses, because her favorite colors were all the shades of pink and purple.
