Sixteen Patch Finish



It's a finish!
Sixteen Patch
56 x 72

This month the theme in my sewing space is "reproductions". That means I've been working to move some UFOs forward that contain civil war repro fabrics or 30s repro fabrics. I might even work on my reproduction of a vintage quilt.


In 2022 I made 33 blocks to use up some civil war reproduction scraps. There's probably not strictly repros in there. I probably used other scraps like Thimbleberries and Kansas Troubles. 




I quilted it on my sewing machine on the diagonals. 


The back is a soft plaid flannel. 

And sew on...

Finished a book - The Alchemist by Paul Coelho. What a lovely parable.

I like 1800's repro fabric too, and have a lot of it. Your quilt looks great, very comfy.

Great finish. The flannel plaid will make this a good quilt to cuddle with during the winter months. On to the next one, eh?

Whatever fabric lines these all came from - the result is beautiful. It has such a nice fall vibe!!

Browns and Blues look so amazing together - and that backing - so perfect for it!
