I think this is a variation of Arkansas Crossroads.

LOVE it! I have an ever growing stack of 30's repros on my shelf (I love them so much I don't put them away with the rest of my fabric!). I have an ever growing list of patterns I want to use them with too! :)

I completely disagree that the quilting is too detailed. It looks wonderful and perfectly matches the quilt. You did a fantastic job!

What a wonderful present! Everyone should do something just for themselves once in a while! We usually do for others and forget ourselves. I love your quilt.

The detail makes the quilt pop off the charts. Really nice quilt!

Repo's and white were just made to go together and you did a fantastic job. The quilting you choose sets it off beautifully.

I love the 30's repro fabrics. you did a great job and what a wonderful idea........a gift for yourself. We quilters tend to make things for everybody else but not our selves. Thanks for sharing.

Simply beautiful. I to like the 30's repo. I did a Dresden plate with them and hand quilted it. It took me three years to hand quilt but worth every minute. Enjoy!
