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
ReplyDeleteNot many more stars to go then Linda - it's so nice to see gingham check in fabric in your stars.
ReplyDeleteLovely blocks. Like your colour and fabric combinations.
ReplyDeleteComing 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.
ReplyDeleteYour collection is growing and looking lovely.
ReplyDeleteYour scrappy stars look good! I like the brighter colors you're using, rather than what's shown in the badge.
ReplyDeleteThose stars look wonderful made up in your treasured scraps!
ReplyDeleteLove the fresh Ohio star blocks
ReplyDeleteLinda, 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!
ReplyDeleteI am loving the gingham look in these!:)
