Let's Twist to the 60's Blog Hop

I grew up in the '60's, so I knew I had to join in on this blog hop; not to mention that I love batik fabrics. 
So when I think of the '60's what do I think of?...
...Love, baby and....
...Peace...
..."All we are saying is give peace a chance".
...Hippie VW Buses...
...Hippies...
...Love Bugs...
...Peace Bugs...
...which are so cool...
...ya dig?
Isn't that neat?
Or far-out?
Yeah baby it's groovy....
...and outta sight man!
Flower Power is where it's at.
Well you know I really dig the scent of patchouli, being the hippie chick that I am.
Speaking of hippie chicks, can you dig her? Look at those love beads and headband.  She's a fox!
She's a real flower child.
Yeah baby Flower Power!!!
My Groovin' Batik '60's quilt, can you dig it?
Are you diggin' this far-out blog hop? Well there is more to see on this groovy blog hop, just check out these chicks and see what they have created. Make sure you spread some love baby and leave them all an outta sight comment. Thanks to our blog hop top cool chick Madame Samm and her far-out cheerleader Mary.

  23. With every picture I kept saying "O My Gosh"!!! I absolutely DIG this quilt! Perfection. In '64 I was in the 8th grade and hip to the Beetles (however, I later switched to the Stones. I gravitated to a harder rock) But I dressed like that and the first manual transmission car I drove was a Bug...did you ever get a bunch of kids together and actually MOVE a bug and watch what happened when the owner couldn't find it?!? Thanks for the memories!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  45. Daryl-Love your quilt-it's so GROOOVY! I really "dig"all those words and the embroidery-FAR-OUT! My husband grew up in the Haight-Ashbury and we met at City College in the early 60's. He enlisted in the Army and was sent to Germany before being transferred to Vietnam. We now live in the SF 'burbs, but our oldest daughter lives in a Victorian in the "Haight" as she works at UCSF. Many memories, some good, some not so good! But you're quilt displays all the fab parts of that era! I embroidered chambray shirts for my husband during that time, but when the shirts wore out I cut the embroidery out and saved it-wasn't going to let all that work go to waste! From California, thanks for sharing.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Cool, baby. Real groovy. Such a trip and so far out! That is an awesome tribute to those unforgettable 60s!

    ReplyDelete
  54. I remember being a little girl and practicing the slang I heard my teenage sister and her friends use. After I spent time with them, I would go into my room and say, " Groovy...neat...neato..." And also try to swing my hair like Julie from Mod Squad and my older sister. How is it possible so much time has gone by?

    ReplyDelete
  55. That is one cool quilt. You have such a wonderful imagination. You have captured the 60's in one Peace. Wonderful.

    ReplyDelete
