1930s Quilt
 

I just finnished this adorable baby quilt for a lovely mom and her baby girl born this Summer. It is made of all kinds of 1930 reproduction scraps I still had on hand. I am very happy how it came out. I used older pink dot fabric, I received in a hand me down box, on the back. I really like using up and finding a home for the fabric that has been sitting there even though it is perfectly good. It went so well with the rest of the quilt. It is hard to let this one go but I know the mommy will be thrilled and the quilt put to good use. Quilted by me on my Janome 6500. I used Anita Grossman Solomon's techniques for making the square in a square blocks.

Here is the tute for the square in a square.

I love it too. It is so bright and pretty. You can't get them any better than this.

That is adorable, I'd be happy with it too. Love everything about it :-)

Thank you for sharing this video ! This looks like loads of fun !

It is and I have made several quilts using this method but this is the first 1930 reproduction print one. I liked this one so much, I already cut out another stack of blocks to make a similar quilt. Pitifully enough I do not have any more of that wonderful pink fabric for the back and binding or any more of the green border fabric. I will just have to find something else. That is part of the fun.

I hope, this being a scrappy baby quilt, it will go along with most of the baby girl's outfits.

This is just such a nice quilt. Love your colors and design! And thank you for sharing all of the information, so good of you. Isn't it fun when you make just the right quilt for just the right people?

very pretty love the 1930s fabs

That came out so very sweet.

Very nice...

I really like the 30's style quilts, they just look comforting and soft. Nice.

Very nice baby quilt

What a sweet quilt! I can see why you would be reluctant to give it up. You did a great job all around.

Adorable baby quilt... love the fabrics! Nice job on the quilting!

very, bright, cheery and colorful

Very pretty quilt indeed. The link just took me to rotary cutter subject matter though.

So cute ! They will love it.

This is so cute and girly! I might just do a take off on this if the next baby quilt I have to do is for a girl. Keeping fingers crossed for the mom-to-be. They have 2 boys and I know she really wants a girl but I do foresee another boy in her future!

very nicely done

Awesome, sweet. Love it. Great job.

Love it! You did a nice job with the quilting as well!

Oh, it's so sweet! I love those 30's prints, and your pattern uses them so well!

I love it! Charming, feminine, cozy. The fabrics are really cheerful and you mixed them up well.

Did you watch the video? anita Grossman Solomon should be the one demonstrating this with the rotary technique. I used it to make this quilt.

It's precious and thanks for sharing the link!

That is so pretty and very fitting for a summer baby

Thanks so much for posting the video site.

so sweet. It will be well loved.

very sweet- nothing like 30's fabrics- love them all

Oh I love this! I have collected 30s fabric over the years but had almost concluded I am not very fond of them. But your quilt proves that wrong! Thanks for the nice inspiration.

Wanted to say "charming"...but that's not what i mean.....this quilt has "Charm"....love it !! ...and i have a few of those fabrics in my stash.

That is a sweet baby quilt, and I love everything about it. Thanks for the link. :)
