This one is called the Patchwork Cottage Wall Quilt.
This is a related one, called Quilt Cottage -inspired by my Lancaster trips!
The other handmade item is my Pinwheel Quilt.
I wanted to make sure I had a few things before I launched it (or re-launched it, as I had listed my cupcake pattern there before I decided to make it a freebie on Scribd.) The vintage part of my shop will be reclaimed fabric, like Fat Quarters of vintage sheets, recycled denim charm packs and other treasures I find.
Please visit my shop here, and have a look (there's a link on the left sidebar, too). If you like it, please consider adding a "heart" or favorite on Etsy.
To celebrate my new Etsy shop, I've decided to do a giveaway of one of the Vintage Sheet Fat Quarter 4- packs. There are several 4-packs in the shop. Just leave me a comment below, letting me know which is your favorite, and I'll choose a winner on July 9th.
7/9 Update: Giveaway now closed.
Picking winner tonite!
Here's a peek at one of the packs:
And, I'm also preparing the next podcast, with all the details about the projects. The pinwheel quilt was especially fun to make!

congratulations on the etsy stop! Im anxious to hear how it goes as im considering one myself! I LOVE vintage quilts and i have to say the yellow group is my favorite... i recognize one of those sheets. It was on my parents bed growing up!
I LOVE the vintage fabrics! At first I thought I would prefer the "Sunshine Yellow" pack, but I am smitten with the "Pretty and Pink" pack. I just started following your blod and I'm hooked!
Oh my goodness gracious! Love me some vintage linens. My favorite is the one that you posted a picture of. Love the greens and coraly looking pinks!
Hi! Wow! Love the Cottage Wall quilt. Very cute ... and I'm not just saying that because of your wonderful vintage sheet give-away! LOL! Congratulations on your Etsy shop. How fun!
I love your shop! I'm sure you'll do well.
The Sunshine Yellow pack is calling to me! Great idea for a giveaway.
"Pretty and Pink" selection is my favorite.
The "house" block quilts are cute. I'd have to say the "Pretty and Pink" FQs were my favs.

I rather like the vintage florals pack.
Congrats to your Etsy shop! I'm one of your podcast listeners and enjoying your episode very much :) And I like the "Pretty and Pink" selection.
Good Luck with your relaunch! I don't know when you find the time as a working mother for all that your do, but keep it up! Love your podcast the best! You're such a real person, I wish we lived closer!
The Pretty and Pink is fun! Was it hard cutting up your prize possesions?!
Congratulations on the etsy site! Found you through flickr. I love all the vintage sheets - and the "Fabulous Florals" is my favorite!
the pinwheel quilt is adorable
pretty in pink is my favorite! I love the shop!
COngratulations on the etsy shop. I know it takes quite a bit of time to set up.
I love you selection of vintage linens, I really like the Pretty and Pink combination.
I want to start of by saying i love your layer cake apron. It's so cute, cupcakes are adorable. Vintage is beautiful <3 I really like your "pretty in pink" Vintage sheets.
You`ve really inspired me to start getting my sewing together. Thank you & good luck on your new etsy shop.
Sunshine Yellow - really enjoy looking at the vintage loveliness. Please enter me into your drawing. I like the circle quilt below as well. mlwright29 (at) hotmail (dot) com
Hooray! Great news :) I've got an Etsy shop too- www.JustALittleOffCenter.Etsy.com, please check it out. I just listed a whole bunch of vintage sheet fat quarter bundles LOL. Once again great minds think alike. I'd love to win yours!
So happy your shop is up and running! Those quilted pieces are a steal. Having seen them in person I just may buy the cupcake shop one! (And I swear I'm not just saying this because you're my sister!)
I may have some vintage pieces for you to add to your next sets!
I love the Pretty and Pink group! I have to start thrifting for vintage sheets. We never had any this nice! Thank you for the giveaway!
I loooove the Pretty and Pink collection! :)
You have a great eye for putting colors together! Methinks I need to get off my chubby butt & sort through the stuff I picked up at garage sales - I have a vintage sheet that would match the bottom picture of your Pretty and Pink set perfectly. :)
I've been enjoying all of your podcasts. I must say I really like the Pretty & Pink collection. I think those fabrics would look great in my daughter's room.
Best of luck with Etsy, it looks great. Hands down my favorite is the Fabulous Florals line.
Wow, those cottage quilts are adorable! I love the landscape quilting. Very cute!
As far as the FQ sets, I can't decided if I like the Pretty and Pink or the Pink and Yellow better. They're all beautiful. Why don't we find sheets like that in the stores anymore? They're all boring solids or large graphic prints.
Long-time podcast listener here. I love all the vintage sheets and the duvet cover you made from them. My favourite are the vitage florals.
I saw your wallhanging and immediately thought you could do a series of different buildings in a town. I think you could have lots of fun designing different types of shops and houses. Have you seen Gwen Marston's Liberated Quiltmaking houses technique?
I love the vintage florals!
Congratulations on another accomplishment! I don't know where you get the energy for all that you do, but you continue to inspire me to try new ideas. Love the yellow vintage fq, just so happy! Keep inspiring us, jill953
Your Etsy shop looks great! Your little quilts have turned out awesome. My favorite bundle is the one that you have in your post as well as your shop. Thanks for another great podcast.
I like the Vintage Florals set!

I've been collecting yellow/orange/green vintage sheets for a few months to make a quilt. I like the Sunshine Yellow set ;) Congrats on the store. It looks great!
Congratulations on the etsy shop! You are an inspiration as I've been thinking of starting a shop myself for some time. I love the vintage florals fat quarters. Thank you for the giveaway.
oh! i love that vintage florals group! my mom had some sheets with that top piece, with the blue & brown & yellows flowers.
Love the sunshine yellow.....thanks for a chance to win.
I found your blog by searching for denim quilts and saw the pinwheel quilt in the images (hope that makes sense). I just brought home a pinwheel quilt that my grandma gave me and it has inspired me to me to make a pinwheel too! My sister just released a line of fabric that's black and white--it'll be perfect in a pinwheel! I have an etsy shop too and will be certain to favorite your shop.
