Here are a few quilts I made during the last 10 years using my favorite 30s fabrics:

Improved Ninepatch, the last one I finished so far. (hand quilted it during the last winter)

At the moment I´m working on this one:

This is almost half of the top. Sorry for the bad pic, it was a little dark that day.

Love all of these. I think 30's repro is my favorite. I am working on a grandmother's flower garden (have been for two years) Oh well someday. But love yours.

Steffi ---- Your quilts are awesome! I have a question --- how did you add the green outer border to the 1st Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt? I can't tell if they are hexagons or a solid panel of material. I am doing a GFG now and don't know how to finish the edges in order to add the binding. Thanks for any suggestions you have. :D

All of them are lovely!

Love that purple flower garden. I'm currently hand pieceing some hexagons, not sure what they will be used for but I'm using whatever comes out of the scrap bag!!
