I had three small finishes and one big one this week. My bigger finish is the shirting quilt I was working on but since the weather is so nasty, I don’t have pictures yet. I finished two more small quilts with my vintage scraps in addition to the April SQT challenge quilt I showed yesterday.
Remember the tiny triangles I showed you?
I used them!
I even hand quilted it! It finished up at 6″ by 7″. I turned the backing to the front and stitched it down for a self binding.
I had planned to make all my SQT challenge quilts this year from vintage fabrics but when March came along, I forgot! So I made another one this week.
This one measures about 9″ square. I am going to just rinse this one in cool water and see what happens.
Thanks for all the comments on the little quilt I showed yesterday! Someone asked where I get vintage scraps. I have purchased some on eBay, some at antique shops and garage sales. Some bits came from very damaged quilt blocks or tops. Most of the really old stuff I would not use in anything bigger than a wall or doll quilt. They are just too fragile. The early dyes often caused deterioration in the fabrics themselves. By the turn of the last century, they had made many improvements. 1930s fabrics are generally sturdy enough to use in a quilt that will be used and washed.

Wow. They are so small and oh so cute. You must be very skilled to work with so small pieces.
wow I can’t even imagine making HSTs that tiny, much less putting them into a quilt, no matter what size. Amazing.
Goodness, those are teeny tiny. Lovely finish. You are very skilled.
Love your mini finishes… esp that little one… very very sweet and very attractive too! You are very talented… thanks for blogging it! Kathi
It is so fun to see someone else working successfully with tiny triangles! I love how you’ve recycled the fabric into beautiful creations!
Brilliant idea, making it a strippy so you didn’t have to match the points. I love it!
Impressive!!
I love minis, and I’m glad you did the triangle rescue as well as the vintage fabric rescue.
What gorgeous little quiltlets you made! Just love them!
what sweet little quilts!
OMG…those are some tiny HST’s. Very cute.
