Here's a site that has free quilt designs for 30s prints: http://www.starflowerfabrics.com/free_patterns_.html

There's also Sunbonnet Sue and many others.

Now there you go, making me drool - I surely need to get my BOM done so I can start something new.

I have to say they are wonderful, I did see a book in Joann's today about the 30's quilts, maybe I should have bought it. You really have talent.

I'm getting ready to make a Vintage Churn Dash quilt. Google it and you can download the pattern.

How about "Grandma's Garden"? It is a lot of hand sewing and something that you can pick up and do without worry. It is a beautiful quilt! Good luck!

Dresden Plate is a good one for 30's fabric.

Twin Sisters is easy to do with reproduction fabrics.

I've got two applique quilts (making flower blocks) going using the 30's prints and another one finished. It's a great print for either something you don't want to go bold colors with and it has alot of small prints so it's great for applique.
