I got out some scraps and went right to work/play. It was fun fun fun!
I had some trouble when I tried to machine quilt this little treasure with invisible thread - look at the size of the skipped stitches! It reminded me how much I hate invisible thread! Once I switched over to Aurifil thread...smooth
Then I got out the bead box and sewed a tiny bead in the centre of each pinwheel.
To compare the size of the blocks, I put my thimble on the quilt...it sure is tiny!
Just how tiny is it?!? About the size of a Tim Horton's coffee!
Thanks to Deanna and Barb for sharing their tiny rulers!
So adorable!! Your tiny treasures have me sorely tempted to take up miniature quilting.
ReplyDeletethat is just adorable. I love it I love the fabrics! I am tempted...
ReplyDeleteHoly cow!!!! That is insanely cute!!!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Very small! Was the Tom Horton cup the inspiration for the fabrics? The quilt looks like it was meant to go with the cup.
ReplyDeleteJust adorable...how fun!
ReplyDeletewow it isn't even big enough to go around that coffee cup!!! Now that is some itty bitty sewing. I might have to take up mini quilting, they look so cool!
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Love the twister quilt!
ReplyDeleteI tried the tiny ruler too. A lot of fun. I found out this week they have a couple of different "tiny" sizes. I have the 1 1/2" ruler and one of the other people in my guild has what looks like a 2" ruler. Definitely a fun activity. Joanne H
ReplyDeleteLove it-love it- love it. Your color choices are great, good job.
ReplyDeleteWOW......and look it's not a UFO!
ReplyDeleteVery, very cute!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the fabrics! This is so cute! I just bought the Mini Twister that uses 3.5 inch squares and will have that finished this week. I don't like invisible thread that well either. Great work!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous little mini twister!!! Love the addition of the tiny beads too, adds such a sweet touch!!!
ReplyDeleteYour Little Twister looks like Neopolitan ice-cream.
ReplyDeleteI bought that template this summer, but haven't taken the leap yet. Love this little charmer. Your extra touch with the beads is inspired!!
ReplyDeleteWow! So tiny, Im really imporessed. I love the idea of miniatures but I think they might do my head in!
ReplyDeleteLovely and so little! I'd really like to make one, but I'm not sure that I've got the patience!
ReplyDeleteoooh you are tempting me with that Timmy's coffee...we don't have anything like that here! :o)
ReplyDeleteLove that little quilt...so darling!
Thanks for bringing you Tiny Twister mini quilt to class today. Just love it! You are amazing!
