My mom made these embroidery blocks 23 years ago. She asked me to finish them in a quilt for my grandbaby. But being that these were so old I didnt think they would hold up to being tossed around by a youngin. So for moms birthday, a few days ago this is what she got. Most of the reproduction 30's fabric I purchased from another board member McQuilter. Thanks for sharing your scraps! One mans trash is another mans treasure!
Didnt want to give it away I love the bright 30's colors. [ATTACH=CONFIG]148102[/ATTACH] closeup of the stitching done by machine. [ATTACH=CONFIG]148146[/ATTACH] |

Great quilt! Thanks for sharing. I love the 30's repro fabrics.
|
Your quilt is fabulous! I love your 30's fabrics with the embroidered blocks! I'll bet your Mother was thrilled with it.
|
How cutie! Great idea.
|
I'm glad your Mom is getting back her stitching! It would be too bad if the blocks were ruined by heavy infant use after all these years.
(Maybe Mom would add a note in her will leaving the quilt to the great-grandchild to enjoy later on. My MIL willed a king-sized quilt I made to DD.) |
Beautiful quilt
