My Great Granny Square blocks are done! So they are off to the side waiting to be sewn into a flimsy.
Here’s one of my flea market finds. While it’s not a traditional vintage quilt, it’s a great example of a frugal quilter using everything in her arsenal to make a quilt.
In fact, it’s not too far off one of the quilts I photographed at the AQS quilt show in Des Moines last week.
The quilter used orphan blocks and scraps to design this quilt. I love both of them!
Here’s the rest of my vintage fabric pile!
And my favorite purchase is an orange Fire King mug!! If it’s orange I love it!
And apparently, I loved it when I was 12! Guess who’s got the orange purse and shoes!
Thanks for looking! Check out Judy at Patchwork Times for other Design Wall Monday projects.

I decided to link to The Coloradolady: Vintage Thingie Thursday
Love the photo of you at 12 with your beautiful orange bag.
Quilts are one of my worst weakness. I love them old or new. I do not quilt, but want all I see. Yours are very pretty.
Love orange and love Fire King mugs!!! What a great find! Your orphan block quilt find is precious. I love how quilters use what they’ve got. Thank you for sharing.
Happy VTT!
