Iīm quilting for around 15 nears now, and for at least 10 years Iīm collecting 30s reproduction fabrics. These are my favorites, and most of my quilts are made out of them.
I love sewing and quilting by hand in the good old-fashioned way, but I just bought a quilting foot for my sewing machine and want to do a little machine work, too.
At the moment Iīm working at a Grandmotherīs Flower Garden top in lavender shades, and finally the end is in sight. Come visit my blog if you want, there are pictures of it.:D
I also like to work with selvages and made one quilt top so far.
Another interest is my dolls house, and so I made some small quilts in 1/10th scale using paper piecing.

Hi Steffi, I was reading your blog, and saw the flowers you said were your grandfather's... here they call them Sweet Williams..I loved your Blog, thanks so much for sharing with us... Jane

Hi Steffi, welcome from middle Tennessee, near Nashville.
I have traveled in Germany, Holland, Denmark and many other countries in Europe and Scandinavia. Beautiful, always enjoyed my travels there. I am also new to the board, it is so much fun.
I love piecing quilts. I have just finised four large quilts for our
children. Got to find another project now.
