As promised here are the two machine pieced quilts I have been working on lately.
The first is a 1930s quilt.
In fact it is made with authentic American Feedsack fabrics for the 30s that
I purchased from the States. The yellow is new fabric but typical of the yellow
used at this time. ere are some close-ups so you can see the fabrics more clearly.
I have machine pieced and quilted this cot quilt - 32" by 44".
This is the new machine project I have started. And it is a welcome
return to my all time favourite fabrics - Japanese woven taupes.
It is great to use a variety of fabrics and to make quilts in a variety
of styles, but Iove returning to my taupe collection.
This will be a big quilt - the block is 8" finished.
Back soon, Robyn
Great to see some feeds sack fabrics. I have been meaning to ask you if you found any. Love the history. Great quilt.
ReplyDeleteSomething about those Japanese Taupe fabrics just keep pulling you in. Right with you there.
