My goodness, I have been getting totally carried away with the RSC color of the month, orange. I did not intend to make an entire quilt; however that is exactly what happened last weekend! I purchased this pattern from Kelly at My Quilt Infatuation several years ago when I first started learning how to quilt and have never made anything with it until now. It's called Courtyard Tiles. I love how easy it is and it comes together really fast. I will probably make this again in another colorway one of these days. So this is just the blocks up on the wall, not sewn together yet. I have to fix one mistake before I sew together. Can you spot it? I made a few more Scrappy Trip Around the World blocks . . . Here is an orange star block, using orange and fabric from a thrifted plaid shirt . . . Here are a few more of block of the month blocks for my Civil War Quilt And I completely forgot about THIS! I found an old ratty and stained one-patch quilt made with polyester fabrics that wasn't worth saving; but look what was on the back! I cut off all the old ties and freed it from the polyester and ripped batting and as you can see, this piece still has some pretty bad blue stains as well, but isn't this a fun cotton print? These flowers are LARGE. So fun. Knowing what I know about the quilt's origin, this fabric is from somewhere between the 30's and 50's. And last but not least I have developed a keen interest in learning about vintage fabrics and learning how to be able to date quilts. That stuff fascinates me. First step, read everything I can get my hands on that talk about antique quilts and fabrics. Here are my first two purchases and I'm having a lot of fun reading them. The Bibliography in the first one has a great list of books to put on my bucket list. Now don't laugh because I am learning things that many of you have probably known for years but one of the first things I learned from Julie Stocker at Pink Doxies is that in the 1950's fabric widths changed from being sold in 36 inch widths to the widths we are seeing today. I did not know that! I have found a kindred spirit fabric nerd in Julie and I know she is going to be a wonderful source of encouragement and knowledge! OK, here is another obvious question that is probably fairly common knowledge but I do not know. When did they start printing designer and maker information on the selvages? I would love to know the answer to that and any other fabric dating tidbits you care to share with me in the comments. I'll bet I'm not the only one interested in this stuff, so feel free to write an essay there if you wish!
