Reproduction 1930's Fabrics Project: Hourglass

Here's a shot of the Repro Hourglass quilt in-progress.
These lovely prints were a gift from a fellow quilter.
Last night, I finished 53. Only 100 more to do!
There's a few other colors not represented in this photo... more coming soon.

Each hourglass is about 8 inches square.
I expect the finished project to be a queen-size.
Now, to pick a fabric for the back!

Mom's quilt back from the quilter

Finally, it's done... and I mean really done.
Mom's quilt came back from the quilter and it looks fabulous. I think she really likes it, but time will tell.
The fabric store that did the quilting is Melear Fabrics, located in Sullivan, MO and Salem, MO. They've done another spectacular job on it. I can't say enough great things about them. They do a huge variety of edge-to-edge patterns. This time, they finished the edge for me, too.

The pattern is "flock of triangles" from Denyse Schmidt. My version was made with mom's favorite colors... pink and maroon. I kind of like it.

Mom's quilt


I finally finished mom's quilt top.
It's based on Denyse Schmidt's Flock of Triangles. I used mom's favorite color: PINK and supplemented with maroon, brown, beige.
Added bonus: an appliqued "P" to monogram it. She loves monograms!
