Bright and Cheerful 30’s Reproduction Tumbler Quilt
My happy little Rainbow 30’s Reproduction Tumbler Quilt is complete! Whew…. that was a mouth full!
30's Reproduction Tumbler Quilt Finishing Details
I always think, I don’t want to get it wrong, but really there is no wrong. It’s your quilt, chose whatever fabric makes you happy. For this quilt I chose solid soft yellow, which would keep it simple and accent the quilt nicely.
Like my last tumbler quilt, I stitched a 1/4 an inch above and below each horizontal seam and through the middle of each of the tumblers.
The finished size is 36″ by 48″. A perfect size for a little one.
The backing blends well with theme. The fabric is Lots of Dots by Karen Stephens. This fabric is so sweet and fun and is a simple backing for this quilt.
I am really enjoying blogging and getting to know so many quilters. I want to thank everyone for all the friendly and welcoming comments. Everyone has been so nice and supportive!
You can find the post on assembling this quilt here: Sweet Rainbow Tumbler Quilt with 30’s Reproduction Fabric.
**Update** – SOLD – This quilt is listed in my Etsy shop. You can view the listing here: 30’s Reproduction Rainbow Quilt.
I also have other patterns for sale in my Etsy Shop.

Do you know how bad I want to make a tumbler quilt, now. I just love both of your latest ones.
I vote no cursive, or a bigger cursive font. It's too hard for me to read the other comments, which I enjoy doing!

Thank you! For the beach quilt I used the tumbler template with the Accuquilt Go Baby. For the 30's Reproduction, I just used a template that I have had for a long time. I found it in some of my files when I was going through them. There are many templates online as well.

Oh that turned out so pretty! Love the colors. I wish I wasn't such a foul weather quilter. I just have a hard time sitting still with it unless the weather is bad (usually cold). Yours really tempts me to try it in fair weather too.

What a beautiful quilt! I LOVE the fabrics and the vintage look. You have also inspired me to make a few mug rugs. How fun. I have just recently started quilting and am working on my very first full sized quilt! Eeek! Come check it out on my blog sometime! Thanks for the inspiration!

This is truly one of the prettiest little quilts I've ever seen using 30's repros. I just love it! I love using repro's but I have never done the "rainbow" effect in a quilt – you've inspired me!
