29 blocks from my vintage redwork block collection. I am guessing at c 1900 for these. Some designs were available commercially and some as you can tell are original designs by the maker.
Click HERE for the patterns. Redwork is a fun take along when traveling or for those times when you have to wait for appointments. I like to do them while I watch TV also.
Trace the patterns using a light box or a window. I use a red permanent pen Sakura Pigma Micron.
Use a good quality fabric such as Kona Cotton Quilt Fabric
Cut 10 inch squares and trim after stitching. Use your favorite embroidery stitch. I usually use the stem stitch.
Have fun!
