I have fallen for vintage sheets from Whimsiedots. They are easy to work with, have interesting colors and patterns, and they are relatively inexpensive. It's also no secret that I love the modern fabrics.
So what could be better than combining the two into a quilt?? And as cheesy as it might be, I think it's fun to make cross blocks out of the old + new fabrics. :)
This is my newest favorite color combination... purple, yellow, and gray...
