Grandmother's Tulip
I have totally fallen down the rabbit hole of Vintage Quilts.
A dear friend and client opened my eyes to the wonders of the stories behind the quilt.
I sent her a picture of this block asking if she knew the name of it.
And this is what she found!
WOW!!!
Who is Barbara Brackman? I've heard her name but I have not really researched her.
Until now, I found an interview with her on the podcast "Just Wanna Quilt"
Now that I had the name of the quilt I decided to see what else I could find...
Eleanor Burns has a free pattern on her site
If you click on the pattern link you can see the original pattern.
The crazy thing is that I don't really want to make the pattern but connecting all the dots is sew sew FUN!!!
My Vintage Quilt exploring is just beginning. Ebay here I come.
