collecting, fabrics

::Sunday Stash/ Sunday Swap::

I’ve been rather absent from here with the trail of family and friends visiting.  Our annual visit from the Northern Irish side of the family was too short, and all 7 of us coexisted in our tiny house wonderfully.

I’m not sure the name of this fabric.  I pick up FQs of this type when I go to fabric shops in travels that aren’t quite my style.

I am hoping to make this quilt:

So, as my Sunday Swap I am offering 28/6-inch squares of this feedsack 30’s feeling fabric.

I am looking for much of the same in different colors to finish the quilt.  Perhaps some larger prints.  It requires 48/6-inch prints total.  Perhaps someone is interested in making it too.  I could add a copy of the directions.

    I don’t have anything to swap with, but I wanted to say I love your fabric. They will go great with the pattern you’ve selected.

    So funny! I have that quilt pattern in my “to make someday” file, except i’m going to use vintage feedsacks I have saved up.

    That pattern is the first (and for now, only) quilt pattern I have ever followed! I don’t think I’ve ever photographed it, though, because the dog chewed it a bit when he was a puppy. He was never a very destructive pup, but he really picked the two things he ruined very carefully…this quilt and an $80 laptop cord. : ) I’ll post on flickr in a minute.

    I also left a comment on your flickr photos, but I’d be up for swapping. I LOVE 30’s prints and that pattern is just too cute! You can email me back (email attached to my id here) or send me a flickr mail to let me know if you still need a swap partner 🙂

    I so wish I had 30’s prints to trade!! That quilt is perfectly sweet! Good luck!

  6. I’d love to swap. I have a number of 1930’s reproductions that I hoard. What colours are you looking for? Drop me a line if you are still looking to swap.

    I just picked up a heap of 30s squares to make something (one of these days!) but I got 5 inch squares. Shoot.

  8. Susan Gilman says:

    ohhhhh this is so something I would love to do! I’d love to exchange emails to discuss swap options? Please write if you still need a partner!

    I love the pattern. Where can I find it?

  10. Rachel says:

    I have some larger 30s prints you may be interested in.

    I’ll take some pictures… later or tomorrow…

    or did you find what you needed?

    great project! I would love the directions.

    Oh I would really like that pattern! Which issue of the magazine was that in?? I really like that the sashing is green and not white. I always think WHITE but I need to think outside of that box.
