And a little more progress

I got this trimmed and added borders to this little quilt.  The original 1930's block is quilt fragile, to I will be glad when quilting and backing will protect this a little.  Interesting to think that these original fabrics in the star are 80 years old!  I am linking to Kathy, here and to Cynthia, here!

Have a super day,

Your little quilt is beautiful. I love that those pretty fabrics are so old. I love that you have given them new life, to be enjoyed once again.

A very happy quilt. Are you planning to use in as a wall hanging or a table topper, or am I wrong in assuming you are keeping it?

The borders are perfect for the block, perfect colors and I like the way you added them. Good for you for finding a way to preserve this block.

That is absoutely ADORABLE-- and, yes, made even better by those fantastic vintage fabrics. I love it.

This certainly is a pretty little star, and at 80 years old is still looking good. Wondering if this is this a family piece, or did you buy it?
