Love your quilt. Like your inspector there too.

I love quilts such as Hommingbird, Country Stars (from McCalls Quilting March/April 2010 issue and Pop It Beads from April-May McCalls Quilting Magazine, all easy and done in @0's repros are so darling.

All of the suggestions so far are wonderful -- I have another.

If you can find an old Ruby Short McKim book, there are a lot of old block patterns in there that would make a great quilt with the 30's. I have made some lovely blocks with the 30's fabrics even though they are not my favorites.

Can't help you. 30's are not my thing, I don't even have any of them in my huge stash. I have seen some cute quilts made with them, they're just not my style.

I think a Sun Bonnet Sue done with the 30's material would be so cute.

Lots of great options.

I've made two Vintage Moments quilt in the 30's prints. They are beautiful quilts. Good idea.

I have used a D4P (disappearing 4 patch) with reproduction 30's fabrics, and have liked it a lot! Here is one of the quilts tops made with this pattern (but not yet finished)--hope you like it! It goes quickly and can use quite a few fabrics in one quilt. :-D

Great use of contrast in the quilt! Love it! Luann
