Where Do You Find Ideas for Quilts?

I have been using old greating cards that inspired me. Have 4 grocery bags full of them and some are so neat for making quilts. They make great applique patterns. Most of the cards are from the 1930's to the 1950's.

Just a walk thru a fabric store and I am inspired for a new quilt...Or I see one on paper and I try to recreate it on draft paper...then twist the blocks around to suit me. It is wonderfu to be able to create something beautiful as well as useful.

Have you seen David Taylor's quilt "Up, Up and Away?"
