Triangle Tile blocks so far. Lots more to come.
Quiltfolk Magazine now has a monthly pattern subscription available. Each month a vintage quilt is featured and a pattern based on the vintage quilt is included in the subscription as well as instructions for more modern version by various designers. I decided to give it a try and Triangle Tiles was the July vintage ( or source) pattern. I'm using my 30s reproduction stash in red, yellow and blues with some browns mixed in.
So far I have received 3 different patterns, July-September. I was going to make all the vintage versions but was a little disappointed in the August edition because the instructions kind of strayed a lot from the vintage - it was simplified. And that's fine but I was drawn to the use of stripes in the vintage quilt and with the simplified version of the pattern stripes won't look the same. I have a stripe that would be perfect so I may work out how to use it myself. Other than that so far I like the Quiltfolk Patterns and will be looking forward to new ones on the first of each month.
