Little Orphan Quilt Tops















I unpacked some of my sewing room this week-end and found three more vintage quilt tops that were flea market finds. I just can't help it, I can't pass up an unfinished top. I have to give them a loving home.
Top 1 is a machine pieced Nine Patch with sashing.

Top 2 is a hand-pieced Bow Tie pattern. The piecing on this one is very nice and precise. I am in awe of all those inset Y-seams. This one has a really cute fair/rodeo print in it.

Top 3 is also hand-pieced and is a simple Four Patch. It uses a lot of solid fabric.

Though none of these would be considered heirloom quality I love them.
