Happy International Quilting Day! Today we are celebrating the gift of quilting - all the fabric, tools, quilty friends, and of course... QUILTS!
This is my first version. The pattern uses 1.5" squares and my version uses 1" squares (which finish at .5".) and I use a fun method of sewing 9 patch blocks. So sweet and perfect for an "I love quilting" project!
My second version will be part of my March Table Scraps Challenge project using green fabrics, which is the colour of the month for the RSC quilters.
Another fun thing to do today would be to start a new quilt. The Fat Quarter shop has posted a free pattern for a lovely World Piece Quilt if you need a suggestion of something you can make from your stash!
Whatever you get up to today, try to enjoy some quilting time!

Oh wow. That block has so many small pieces... Absolutely wonderful.....
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable pattern to mini size. Even cuter in the tiny version.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun little block
ReplyDeleteGosh, I was thinking I needed to look for another postage stamp project. Thanks for the inspiration and link.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a fun day planned!
Mini sized the pattern? You are a quilter after my own heart, Kathy!!
ReplyDeleteThat makes an adorable heart, Kathy! Have fun teaching your class today!
ReplyDeleteWow! Tiny but oh so cute! Have fun with your class today. It sounded like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteLove your RSC block, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful idea to use craps.
ReplyDeleteYou really are very good at the small stitching stuff. Love the green scrappy heart. Hope your class went well and you got in a good bit of stitching time on International Quilting Day.
ReplyDeleteI hope the class went well.
ReplyDeleteLove how you mini-sized the heart!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet heart block but I never would have miniaturized it. Good for you!
