Item Description

Amanda Valentine lives in Nashville, where she designs and produces her eponymous clothing line. In 2013, Valentine competed on season 11 of Project Runway and was a part of Project Runway All Stars season 6 in 2017.

Her garment was inspired by this crazy quilt jacket made for Betty Steffen by her mother in 1931. It’s embroidered with flowers, animals, stitches, and the words “Love Mom.” Steffen was one of the first flight attendants hired by TWA.
