You know I love quilt blocks as much as the next person, however, isn't it a lot nicer to have a quilt?
I am on a rampage to 'bust' my blocks, get rid of these little pieces of individual fabric, and whip them up with their friends to form quilt tops.
Can you tell me the date the above quilt top was made? Vote for the answer you think is real:
a) This quilt top is antique, made circa 1890, and was bought by Marisa and photographed for her blog.
b) This quilt top was made yesterday by Marisa, she used reproduction fabrics.
c) This quilt top is made from antique blocks Marisa bought from Cindy's Antiques, and she used reproduction fabrics as sashing since all the blocks were crazy different sizes and would otherwise not have fit into the same quilt.
d) This quilt top is not made of any Japanese fabrics, so I refuse to vote!
And if you've ever dreamed of being in New York City for Christmas (which I have only had the pleasure of doing 1 time in my life) then check out Cindy's blog - Quaint Handmade - AWESOME photos of the holiday window displays there. Thanks Cindy!!
thank you so much for mentioning us! one more day tomorrow, although we do want to get some shots at night!
ReplyDeleteyour quilting is always so beautiful!
I'll guess C but D sure is a solid answer, too...
ReplyDeleteMarisa! What a beauty! I am a little out on a limb here, but my guess would be antique blocks sewn together with reproduction fabrics. Anyway - it is lovely! I would love to hear more about the quilt and the blocks, and see what you are doing with your other pieces of fabric! Love, Una
