    I found some Debbie Mumm fabric in my stash and it is so out of date as far as color and design. Remember Mary Engelbreit designs?

    Just for fun, attached is a project I have in my boxes. Found the 70s cross-stitch blocks at the thrift store. The pre-printed fabric is really flimsy, I plan on prequilting the blocks to a thin batting, and then incorporating some quilting from the sashing into the blocks as well.

    The red is modern. The chocolate brown was on a bulletin board from my mom's home ec classroom -- I know for certain it is authentic 70s. Amazing that the fabric was in wonderful shape and did not fade.

    The baby blocks is another thrift store find. I think early 80s.

    I don't know the answer but I do know that my tastes keep changing. That makes quilting even more fun.
