ANYMORE........ anything over 20 years old is considered "vintage." (That means you and I must be vintage !!!) I realized this when I saw a set of Melmac dishes on Etsy, listed as Vintage....and realized they were the same set Richard and I got as a wedding gift......OUCH !!!
I have quite a stash of beautiful cotton "vintage" chenille. I got the print fabric on ebay, and it just went so well with some of the chenille.....So....I drew a QUILT PLAN...in my notebook...and cut just enough for the squares....I layered the chenille with two layers of softest flannel....sewed a "SWIRL" in the center, then cut them to size on my Accucut machine. SUCH A GREAT MACHINE...it cuts the fringe too, so you don't have to snip it by hand....
I really love this soft baby quilt....and just may tuck it away for now....You never know when you'll need a gift....

Vintage is ok; now if you call me antique, that's another story!! lol
Beautiful rag quilts. Oh April, you're such in inspiration! I love seeing pictures of your work. I've been so itching to sew lately, but have promised myself to get my office in order before draging out my sewing projects again. I think I'll hurry off the computer & finish cleaning my office, so I can sew this weekend! ;-)
