Vintage Inspired

Most of this year I've been working on Four Patches (4P) of Quarter Square Triangles (QSTs) as a Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) project. The blocks will alternate with some old 4P blocks left over from some other quilt.  I was inspired by the vintage quilt in the photo above. 

I have now finished the last 19 QST 4P blocks and have now reached my goal of 65 blocks. 

So now I have another complete block set that will go into the Some Assembly Required (SAR) box to be assembled at a later date. I need to get some of my backlog of tops quilted and finished before I assemble any more tops.   

And sew on...

Now I can check another RSC project off the list! This one does not need to continue into 2023!

  7. Havent you done well. Although I'm wondering just how long you will be able to leave these blocks in the "some assembly required" box. I'm sure you will be itching to get on with it.

  14. Great inspiration quilt! I love it --- a "SAR" box sounds so much better than WIPS, LOL!! Do you think you will hand quilt or machine quilt this one when the time comes and how do you decide that? Like everyone else, I look forward to seeing this one when it's finished!
