T Row Studio Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Here are some vintage embroidery blocks I rescued from a grab bag a lady was giving away when she down sized her sewing room. I bordered the blocks with orange and blue gingham fabric to keep the vintage look but then I did various background fills to make the embroidery pop a bit. I quite like how it looks.I remember my mother embroidering blocks and making us a quilt when we were young. I showed my mother this and she said I could do some more blocks. So now the great grand children will have baby quilts made by her and me this will be so special. Thanks for listening to my story, Have a great day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue E. Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 Terry, this is a great quilt and the idea your mom is going to make more blocks so you can make more quilts for the grandkids is wonderful. They will be so treasured. Your quilting is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
