While each decade is filled with new trends in quilting, the popularity of 1930s quilts and quilt patterns is still going strong almost a century later. Spanning the Great Depression, quilting trends from the 1930s were very much influenced by their time, with quilters favoring scrap quilts over spending money on expensive fabric. Pastel colors were also trending with quilters during this time and many saw the light colors in their quilts as a way to be uplifting during hard times. If you can't get enough vintage quilt patterns and have always had a fondness for traditional quilts, then you'll love our collection of Depression Era quilt patterns and projects. Our collection of quilts inspired by America's Great Depression is budget-friendly and vintage-inspired, both of which are key to Depression era quilts. We've included block patterns popular during the 1930s, including Dresden plates, as well as several scrap quilt projects that are perfect for frugal quilters. If you can't get enough light and airy quilts, then you'll love our section of pretty pastel quilts that are reminiscent of typical 30s quilts popular with quilters in the Great Depression. Turn back the clock to one of America's most popular decades for quilting and choose your favorite project from our list of Depression era quilt patterns!

Ley Lines contemplates convergence. It plays with the vanishing point and the feel of looking skyward and seeing trees appear to stretch towards each other; looking to the horizon and seeing your road disappear. Its meeting parallel lines are created with travelling slipped stitches to striking graphic effect. Ley Lines is a V-neck seamless set-in sleeve sweater knit from the top down. The sweater is knit section by section: the top-back is knit first from shoulders to arm-holes, stitches are picked up from the shoulders to work the top front, front and back are joined to work the body in the round, stitches are picked up from the armholes and sleeve caps are shaped with short rows, sleeves are worked straight to the cuff. The pattern also plays with slipping stitches, twisting stitches, and elegant bind-offs.
