I posted the original and complete story on this fabric here.
This sweet vintage package of DWR blocks can easily be yours!
I need to note that these are remarkably clean: no smells only a stain or two that I could see. I found no bugs or signs of mice in the package. Kudos to this lady for keeping this collection so clean for so long!
There are 5 piles of this size of blocks, each pile has approximately 100, yes one hundred blocks!
The remaining fabric here in the drawer consists of 99% cut wedges like you see on the bottom left. The rest of the fabric pieces are a variety of small scraps. (Bottom right)
I found a few centers and melons in the box, that could possibly be used for a pattern. There is also a pattern cut from a newspaper. I couldn't find a date on it, but there is an ad for a car salesman at a dealership I remember as a kid--it sold out in the mid 60's.

This pile of about 100 blocks are a different size.
Wedges are longer and more narrow.
Just look at all these fun vintage fabrics~
I love these pink fabrics and after seeing several of them, decided it was "Jack and the Beanstock."
So, there you go! Approximately 550-600 Vintage Double Wedding Ring blocks with extra scraps.
I can ship it anywhere in the US for about $10 and anything over that will be use to purchase batting for Quilts of Valor quilts.
I have been quilting for Quilts of Valor since 2008 and quilt at least 2 per month. My hubby and I supply all the batting for the tops I quilt. QOV is entirely a volunteer organization and this is a contribution we make.
If you are interested in placing a bid on this awesome vintage package just leave a comment in this blog or my earlier blog post or you may e-mail be at bunkhousequilts@atcnet.net.
This special package deserves a Home Sweet Home!
Oh this is just too precious! I love those fabrics! Not sure about making a DWR, but with those cutie-patootie fabrics, who can resist?
