I’m going with the spirit of just working from my scraps, no shopping. I've swopped out all the antique browns out for blues, but otherwise I'm trying to dig for something that’s similar value wise to the original blocks. I have noticed the original crib quilt has lots of checks, stripes & plaids - florals not so much.
7 different fabrics✅
But for some of my blocks I’ve gone a bit off script!
While sewing, I've been thinking about how they will all look together and how I might set them.
hmm-m- super happy with this vintage effect ...
Happy sewing

Very nice blocks
Not many more stars to go then Linda - it's so nice to see gingham check in fabric in your stars.
Lovely blocks. Like your colour and fabric combinations.
Coming along nicely! I've noticed that a few of the old blocks had light backgrounds and dark stars, so I'm making a few extra of that combo.
Your collection is growing and looking lovely.
Your scrappy stars look good! I like the brighter colors you're using, rather than what's shown in the badge.
Those stars look wonderful made up in your treasured scraps!
Love the fresh Ohio star blocks
Linda, I just love your blocks so much. They have a sort of modern kind of retro feel which sounds contradictory but works beautifully here. Happy continued stitching!
I am loving the gingham look in these!:)
