Finished UFO and need a name suggestion
I normally don't name my quilts. I just don't have that kind of imagination. So I finished this, with vintage blocks from ebay, reproduction 1930's fabric from today and a more contemporary quilting design. I was thinking something like Past meets present or yesterday and today. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. I am going to get the label made then I need to decide if I am going to keep it or put it up for sale.

'Yesterday's treasures". The fabrics and patterns remind me of all the older quilt patterns I have seen. The quilt is beautiful. Good job, it would be hard for me to not keep. I love it.

Okay they already took 2 of what I was thinking so now I really have to think......How about.....lets see it reminds me of grannie squares....you want the name to have past and present....hummm....."Grandmas tales of the times". You see your quilt has a story to tell and thats what grannies do tell stories, from "Yesteryear meets modern", your quilt has it own story and its speaking loud and clear. Beautifully done!

Love them all. I like the juxposition of old and new. But now that I see it in a photo I can really tell the vintage fabric (all the blocks) from the new fabric (the border) the colors are different. I really tried to get them as close as possible. Did pretty good matching the yellow though.
The quilt doesn't really fit my bed. I am one of those that needs to have something to DO with it to keep it. LOL I really need to Stop that.
