Vintage blocks

Here's another doll quilt (about 24 inches square) made from the parts department. And these are definitely vintage blocks from some time in the 80s. The thread I was using then looks more like cording compared to the thinner thread of today. I had eight blocks and had to make another. It was huge in comparison. Happily, fabric is a rather pliable substance.

    I'm impressed that you still had the same fabric from the '80s to make another block! Are you a diehard fabric hoarder or was it just a happy chance? I wish I still has some of the fabric I used back in those days.
