It's Tuesday! I know, that's really no big deal so I decided once in a while during 2016 I'd make it something special. I have a treat for you and I'm calling it Tuesday Treasure. I don't know exactly what'll I'll post each time but it'll be an antique pattern or design for quilting, embroidery or art needlework from my collection. I might not post something every single week but will aim for every other week. I'll make a page you can find in the right sidebar in case you miss one of the Tuesday posts and the Treasures will be there all year long.
This week's Treasure is a favorite block of mine I've wanted to use for a long time. I think it's from the 30s or maybe a little earlier but I want to make a quilt using this block with Kaffe Fassett fabrics. Won't that be a great, happy quilt?
If you're making The 1857 Album Quilt and want to put a button on your blog, there's code to grab in the right sidebar. The first three blocks are free until the end of the month. Violet's taking a nap so I think I'll pour a cup of coffee and take a few stitches in my own blocks. I'll be back tomorrow with an update and more new!
