I'm sewing it with the Circa 1934 fabric I won in my very first "Schnibbles" entry. That was back in June of 2012 -- I guess the fabric has aged enough that I can actually sew it up now!
Here is the quilt so far. It is supposed to have two borders, but I'm leaning toward "Skip the Borders" for this one:
Linking up to Design Wall Monday.
Still raining in Colorado, but it's supposed to warm up and dry out as the week progresses!

Aged fabric! That's why I need so much of it, it needs to properly age before using, like fine wine.
ReplyDeleteLove your rendition... it's a great pattern and the aged fabric suits it.

Yep fabric does age as it gets the strokes before you can bring yourself to cut into it
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of aged fabric and I am glad to see you using yours. I like the quilt so far.
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing, Marti. :o)
ReplyDeleteThats a very clever but simple pattern by the looks of it. I'm a fan of no borders too - not all quilts HAVE to have a border.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on the theory that if you put all your fabric together in a dark room for long enough it might breed. You never know, right?! Perhaps I should seek a sponsor to conduct some clinical research! I'm on the side of no border either. Let the binding do the talking!
ReplyDeleteI like your version, lighter and brighter. I've been watching the flooding via our news service, this is as severe as the floods we had two years ago here in Australia, my wishes to everyone involved.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comment! I am sorry I couldn't find an address to send a personal reply.
DeleteYes, I do love your lighter version!
ReplyDeleteMarti...this is fantastic. The colors are wonderful.
