Mini Mania

Saw these darling mini quilts on display at a LQS (local quilt shop) and was charmed! So HAD to buy the pattern, and used a Kaffe Fassett pastel charm square bundle to make my first mini :) Quilting and binding are up next.

Treasure hunting

This charming painting is an estate sale find, $1 and painted on cardboard, sadly. The wood panel is an old bakers cabinet door, probably from the top section. I added the turquoise paint and hangers.

Step 3 & 4

Stitched, cut apart, pressed, ready to sew again :)

Step 2 Cutting

Stitching done, following the directional lines on the paper. Cutting horizontal, then vertical lines. Next, carefully realign the pieces to cut the diagonals...
Now I have a pile of blocks ready to press, after I "snap" the paper template off.

Step 1

Fat quarters cut into 8" wide strips, ditto Kona white. Layered right sides together with Triangles on a roll (3" finished block size) on top. Now off to the sewing machine.

New Project

No grass grows under these feet, starting a new project while impatiently waiting for the March Gypsy QAL post, lol!
