I finally finished adding all the sections to my primitive strip quilt.
I just need to add the borders which will be a red plaid.
A close-up of the strips.
Most of the fabrics are vintage Brannock & Patek fabrics.
My quilt is based on a 1930 African American quilt from the book
The Ultimate Quilting Book by Maggie McCormick Gordon.
Wow, what a difference color makes! I'm so partial to Primitive, it "speaks to me". Can't wait to see the plaid border.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use those strips. Have lots of those.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet that was a whole lot of fun to sew together. Terrific idea for a scrap quilt.
