Children's Vintage Quilt Remake


I call it rescuing. Removed the border and four blocks.  Hand quilted with the Big Stitch.  Used vintage fabric on the back and binding.

Bucilla Applique Quilt Kit

Bucilla Quilt
"Puff-Quilted Wreath"
Design No. 1731

c. 1940


A rare find, pristine quilt kit in unused condition. This even has the matching embroidery floss. I have never seen this as a finished quilt. Pattern instructions say, the patches are to be puff-quilted with padding, giving an unusual embossed or raised effect.
