I told you that I was going to work on this:
Remember that it was only 7 1/2 inches and needed to be at least 9 inches square? Well, it took me awhile, but here it is, now 15 inches square, waiting for a new owner someday:
Then, I want to show you the mini I sent to my partner, Pam (uberstitch) for the QT Mini swap. The theme this time was "true minis". (I'm sure getting a lot of practice lately on all this true mini quilting stuff, let me tell you!!) In reality I could have used this 9 x 11 inch quilt for all three swaps that I'm in. Wouldn't that have been a hoot?
Don't tell anyone, but I think I'm going to make another one like this maybe for me. I really like it! OR....maybe for my DQS swap partner if she likes rainbows? Who knows? It's just "so" me and I had such fun matching those tiny seams. Each little block is only 3/4 inch by 1 inch. Eikes!

I'm starting to get really excited about all this true mini stuff!
They are both lovely. I haven't done any piecing that small before!
I love coming to see your minis. You use color so excitingly.
Great minis. I know they'll be well loved

Both these quilts are wonderful! I really love your use of colour! I am sure your partners will be very happy!
Two little beauties!! If they get any smaller you'll be able to use them for earings!
Oooh they are wonderful! Hmmm too bad I've already had you as my partner as that probably leaves me out of the running for these... Xx

I love them both, Carol but the black is my most favorite! You've inspired me to get busy & finish up my pointed star from a class on paper piecing I took. Its only been waiting for about 9 years. LOL
Cool borders on both!!!
Happy 4th, my friend!
