Now people are giving me MORE STUFF. Good Grief!
Last week a couple friends and I got together at our favorite Mexican restaurant and finally exchanged our Christmas gifts.
ARGH! Leslie gave me a stack of Vintage Orphan Quilt Blocks that she had found at the Salvation Army.
Isn't that awesome??????
NO IT"S TERRIBLE! How am I going to purge my studio when people keep giving me more stuff to stash in my ever-shrinking sewing space?
Of course, I would never say "no." Would you?
The blocks are wonderful. Well-constructed with lots of really great vintage fabrics. A few of them are earlier, perhaps 1890-1910, but the rest are Depression-era goodies.
Sigh...........I guess I'll have to buy some more bins and totes.
Turn those lovely depression era blocks into a lovely quilt. You could even make it a modern quilt by appliqueing them to a solid piece of fabric (randomly all over).
ReplyDeleteHmmm, some good ideas, Cheryl!
