Peg found this little gem at an estate sale. The kit is from 1976. The original owner had cut out all the blocks and paper clipped them together. Sad to say that some of them had rusted and I am unable to use that fabric. The quilt is supposed to have 30 blocks but I will only have 20. Unless of course I find a way to remove the rust..... I have "Whink" and I know it would work but I do think if I get 20 done it will be salvaging enough of this project.
I have my Grip Mat out and I am marking the pieces 1/4 inch from the edge. I do not know why this project surfaced but it did and I am enjoying it.

That is lovely1 So sorry about the rust! have you tried some type of enzyme on it? Don't know if it would work but worth a try!
You have been very busy. I seem to be behind in my blog reading.
The Dear Jane blocks look great. It is so sweet of you to finish them for someone else. Can I send you mine -- LOL!!
How are you enjoying the new camera?? I bet it's nice to have a new camera. The picture of the magazine is sure nice a sharp and clear.
What a great find. I have never done an estaste sale, but maybe I should take a look next time.
