During our travels over the last few weeks we stopped by Brighton Beach in Melbourne and as I was looking at my photos I couldn't help to think that these little beach huts could really turn into a cool quilt. How could you not love all the colors and originality of them. I guess I'll have to start sketching out some ideas. Just for kicks I thought that I'd throw in a little fun fact about these. The last one to sell went for $171,000 AUD and have been known to go for over $200,000 AUD. Crazy huh!
Wow! That's expensive! I wonder what they look like inside? Do they have little kitchens and such?
ReplyDeleteI believe they have no power or water and are for storage and shade at the beach. They have become so famous they are now a status symbol. In fact when I was there one of the boxes had a four man crew working on it.
DeleteHi! Found you via Sewing Summit! I find it fascinating that you live on a sailboat, quilt on a sailboat and have a baby on the boat too! Looking forward to following your blog!
