I've seen this pattern and felt it calling me too, but just haven't collected the fab's yet. Love how it turned out.

Love the bright colors of 30's reproduction fabrics. Good way to use up scraps.

Would look fabulous on one of my spare beds. Both over 100 years old !

Nice quilt.

Cute pattern!

I found something similar; this quilt is much smaller than JanineH's (38 1/2 x 48 1/2) however, you could make it to your desired size very easily.

I would not cut all those little pieces. I would cut color fabric into 4 1/2" strips and strip sew a 2 1/2" white strip onto it, then sub cut into 2 1/2" strips. Additionally, I would audition the layout before sewing rows together.

I bought a bundle of fat eights on eBay.

Love your quilt. I also love repo 30's. I went digging and found that pattern which I thought I had received in a mailer. Guess what quilt I am going to start on soon!!!! :)
