If you get a chance, go check out the blog by Henhouse (henhousehomemade.blogspot.com). She has a lot of different things to look at, but myself I have been drawn to all of her crazy blocks using vintage embroidery pieces from table cloths, pillow cases, handkerchiefs or anything else that may have embroidery.
She is using a lot of vintage fabrics too. You have to go check it out. They are all gorgeous.

I only saved this one picture from Pinterest, where she is starting to do the hand quilting on the quilt. I am saving this so I can find her site again later, if my favourites get lost.
I think I am now on the lookout for vintage embroidery. Sometimes you can get them cheap, when the embroidery is on a piece of linen that has holes in it or stains. I will have to keep my eyes open.
