I am working on another long term project. I bought a pattern in Paducah last year that has a block of the month and a mini quilt for each month. I would pick it up every couple of months and ponder starting it, but in my mind I needed to start in Jan. The block of the month is incorporated in the mini quilt each month. Here is what I've done so far:
Jan. block
Yes it is a little rough around the edges. It is 3 1/2 inches square. After you make all 12 months you put them together in a final mini quilt.
Jan. mini quilt
It is 11 1/2 inches square.
Feb. block-
Those pieces are tiny.
Feb. mini quilt-
This one is a little bigger at 18 1/2 x 20 inches. Not exactly how I envisioned it in my head, but it is growing on me.
March block-
And an unfinished March mini quilt-
I was trying to get out of my comfort zone color wise. And make something a bit springy. There is suppose to be another 2" border around the outside. I got stuck. Help. Vote for the one you like best. Or if you think I should not put the other border on. I am trying to use fabric I have so the choices are limited.
#1
#2
#3 = no border
I haven't started on April's block yet, since I'm behind on March.
Enjoy the day!
WOW!! Those are small pieces!! I don't know how you do that! I like the green border. Cant wait to see it! and I love February's mini quilt! very cute!! :)
ReplyDelete#2. It would be so pretty with the green border! pretty spring colors! Makes me want to do something springy for my own house! What are you going to do with 12 mini quilts?
