My sister had bought some quilt squares my grandmother had made in their estate auction 17 years ago. They have sat in her basement until a couple weeks ago. She brought them over and asked if I could finish some quilts for her.
In the box I found these blocks that were already sewn together in strips. My grandmother didn't have a rotary cutter so the fabrics aren't exactly even.... But I think it adds character!
I have been able to get one quilt completed so far. Its been fun! I love the scrappy, vintage feel!
Thanks for taking the time to look!!

How nice to be able to finish something your Grandmother started.
I love the scrappy quilts the most.
What a great story behind the fabric, it's really special as it's from your grandmother.
So nice to finish it off instead of passing it along to some charity. Its quite modern & funky really.
how fun sewing up those fabrics... and what a lovely quilt..
