I like the half square triangle start because it really emphasizes the light/dark sides of the blocks. janequiltsslowlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14079952744650435885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-50550948751481187962013-02-10T12:52:15.152-05:002013-02-10T12:52:15.152-05:00yes they are those fabrics because most were sugar...yes they are those fabrics because most were sugar and flour sacks that had been lovingly washed and pressed and used in magazine and newspaper patternsdeelish10https://www.blogger.com/profile/08199363585441728434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-25988748849646395302013-02-10T11:59:04.865-05:002013-02-10T11:59:04.865-05:00Thank you for sharing the beautiful old quilt.

The first quilt I made was a log cabin for my 7 yr old son in 1988.<br />I love the colors and layout of this quilt.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03967708086514018965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-67324837968993983462013-02-10T09:51:58.930-05:002013-02-10T09:51:58.930-05:00As I listen and read about how you date antique qu...As I listen and read about how you date antique quilts (fabric choices, patterns, size of blocks, etc.)and watch you make quilts (replicating antique patterns, combining great ideas from other quilts, designing your own patterns) and hear you talk about the age and diversity of fabrics in your stash, it makes me wonder...<br /><br />How will someone analyze your quilts 50 years from now? Will they appreciate the ingenuity or be confused by the generational cross-over? Knowing the abundance of fabrics available, what reasons will they come up with for your use of recycled fabrics? Oh, how I'd love to be a fly on the wall for those considerations! At least they won't have to wonder about the age and creator of our quilts if we always label them. But there will be plenty left to the imagination, I'm sure, for anyone curious enough to imagine. Looking forward to QuiltCam - thanks!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14859501514468385180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-12370627584128385892013-02-10T09:21:41.154-05:002013-02-10T09:21:41.154-05:00When I married in 1964 my grandmother gave me a lo...When I married in 1964 my grandmother gave me a log cabin quilt top. It was hard to see the difference in the light and dark areas. I foolishly thought that she didn't know how to make the quilt. One night in the dark the pattern stood out (so it was my eyes that couldn't see the difference). Now I know that she didn't have many lights in her scrap bag. I loved that quilt to death, literally. I had it quilted by a church group and it was not quilted tight enough so after many many washings it came apart. (I didn't know how to wash it either, lol.) I only have a few square left. Thanks for the memories and the explanation.<br /><br />Joan Lilac Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06066118671618968939noreply@blogger.com
