Hello Everyone,
I suppose I was inspired by all the 1930s quilts that I saw at the antique shop on Nantucket this weekend. Because my newest project is featuring 1930s fabrics.
Yes, believe it or not, I do love not only Kaffe, batiks, black and whites, but also 1930s. I have quite the stash of them too. It just seems that lately I haven't been working with them. So it was time to do so....
I selected a variety of blue, green, yellow, red, purple, and orange prints. What you can't see is that there are a variety of different prints under each color.
I started with two of the blues...
Then went to the greens...
Then the yellows...
And ended with reds for the day. I see more geese on the horizon for tomorrow!
Do you like 1930s prints? How do you use them in projects?
If you like 1930s I still have some on Clearance in the online shop! Just click here to see.
Until Next Time...

Pretty! I do love 30s prints and I'm not only have Mom's reproduction 30s stash but I also have a small stash of the originals. Project in progress that I need to get back too. Love flying geese.
Very fun! It looks like you're starting a great new project. I love 30's prints!
1930's prints have never been a favorite of mine but I do have a few hanging around - they tend to be cut up into small pieces and used in scrap quilts or applique.
There is something so appealing about '30s fabrics - they are so fresh looking!
I can't wait to see what your flying geese are going to become!
I still like the 30s repros. I need to make one more large quilt with them. Maybe it will be a 16 patch, lol!
Didn't care much for 30's fabrics until I started to work with them. They look so happy in my fan quilt-in-progress that I now think of them as antidepressants.
I love 1930's fabrics, I want to make flying geese now!
I love 30s for baby quilts. So fresh and clean looking.
