More Spinning

Here are some more vintage spin blocks for my Pretty Weird quilt that will be reversible:  pretty spins on one side and weird ones on the back. In any case, I am still having quite a bit of fun digging deep into the stash for my combinations. The spin block in the upper left uses a dark blue swirly fabric from a dress I wore in the 60s and a Marimekko fabric from who knows where with 1989 printed in the selvedge.

You do have some amazingly different fabrics in your collection - these are stunning combinations.

I need to get back to my Vintage Spins. Yours are looking good these days.
A dress! Those were the days. (Girls had to wear dresses with hems below the knee in high school in my day so your mention of dresses in the 60s reminded me of that. I'll have to tell the granddaughters. They will get a kick out of that. )
