1800's Vintage Quilt

It's midnight...but I wanted to post this before going to bed.

I just finished this little quilt top...measures ~20.75 inches square.  Each of those little squares measures 3/4".  There are 193 colored squares. 

The instructions for this 1800's Vintage Quilt can be found here, at the Moda Bake Shop.  A bunch of us over at the Small Quilt Talk Yahoo! group are working on this pattern.  I used all reproduction fabrics, shown here.  Plus, Kona cotton solid in 'snow'. This was a fun and easy little quilt to put together.
 

I had all the little 9 patch blocks put together and had the setting squares and rectangles cut out before today.  So, all I had to do tonight was piece all the little blocks together into bigger blocks and put it all together.  It needs a really good pressing, but I'm pretty happy with it.

Upcoming Projects...

I need more to do.  

Actually, I had a gaping hole in my time

(yeah, right...ha!)

because I quit the simple sampler quiltalong.

No particular reason. 

Yesterday, the Small Quilt Talk yahoo! group

I belong to was just buzzing.

There is a challenge AND a quiltalong starting right now.

The challenge is from Kathy Tracy...a star block doll quilt.

Here's the fabric I chose for my stars...

The fat quarters are Luna Notte by 3 Sisters for Moda...

coming to quilt shops near you this month or next.

I'll have to pick up a bit of yardage once it arrives...

for the sashing and backing and binding.  

And, there is a quilt along starting...

the 1800's Vintage Quilt on the Moda Bake Shop here.

This is the fabric I'll be using for that.

I'll be adding in some odds and ends that I have

left over from the Pioneer Sampler BOM.

I bought the fat quarters that are shown...

the 3 on the right side I had in my stash.

Lots of nice reproduction fabrics

I can use for more doll quilts. 

So.

I'm thinking that will keep me busy for a bit.

What do you think?
