I have lots of the 30's reproductions and a good collection of true vintage fabrics, too.

I really like the book called Fabulous Feedsacks. It is chocked full of perfect patterns for the vintage and reproduction prints.

If you go to Amazon and search for Feedsacks, several books will pop up. They all look interesting to me, I just can't personally vouch for any but the Fabulous Feedsacks.

Also, try searching for free vintage quilt patterns online. You might find just what you like!

i like to use patterns that really let the print show such as pinwheels, or bowtie or Dresdan plates, orange peel, drunkards path, etc. For some reason I think those fabrics look good in circular type patterns. Like the one on the cover!

Good luck! Be sure to come back and let us know what you decide on. Of course I am assuming you are asking the question because you want to do one??
