I'm having so much fun with the 1718 Coverlet!
The first three rows are sewn together.
I'm sticking with the original colors as much as I can,
adding a few Dutch repro prints, plus some stripes and dots.
I'm also simplifying some of the blocks.
This project is addictive!

So far so gorgeous! I got a book now too and hope to make one from vintage Japanese silk! Thanks for sharing. Did you used English paper piecing method?

You're making great progress!! Your blocks look wonderful and your fabric formula of dots stripes and following the colours is working perfectly.
I like how you centered the flower in your block.
C'est un début somptueux !
The balance between all your chosen fabrics is perfect. Thus you have so many styles! Great beginning.
I'm enjoying seeing this classic quilt being updated.
I'm eager to see your swans!
Very cool blocks---love the fussy cut centers!

You are off to a beautiful start. Love the warmth of your chosen fabrics.

So much fun to look at!!! Did you buy the Dutch repro prints in Amsterdam? (webshop) I don't think you will need a few years to finish this ;)

you are really moving along!!
Your fabric mix is so interesting and fun to look at.
Glad you are having so much fun with this project. It shows.
Oh, this looks like SO much fun! I need another addiction here...
How did I miss hearing about this book?!? I love your new obsession! Your fabric selection is so spot on...
What a fabulous rendition! Love the fabrics you're using. The color combo's are wonderful.:)
I understand your addition to this project! I recognize some fabrics I have and I must say you have a talent to match them!
Love how your own design sensibilities shine through.
So impressive!! It looks great! I bought the book a few months back, but haven't gotten past the contemplative stages yet... not sure if I ever will, but a girl can dream! Looking forward to seeing your beauty progress!
Really beautiful!
