Tiny (Tim) Quilt

Recently, I've been interested in 

making some tiny quilts.  These #tiny

 #quilts would add a splash of 

color to my already  adorable 

 sewing machines 

I have displayed around the house.

I was hoping to finish up a few of

these cute quilts, but was only able

to get one completed.

I purchased the pattern 

here from Temecula Quilt Company

The small book is called T for Tiny

and you get a total 

of six quilts.

I used scraps from my stash.  

Cut, marked and

assembled my blocks.  A total

of twelve blocks. T for Tiny

was the name of the block

used in the book, but while sewing

I decided to name it T for Tiny Tim,

after my youngest son.  

Haha! 

Attached by blocks

Sandwiched my Tiny Tim quilt.

Here's the back of my tiny quilt.

Sewed the binding and attached a

label to the back of my quilt.

Here you have it. An adorable

 quilt displayed with my 

antique sewing machine.

A note of caution!  While making

this quilt, I did have to adjust 

the pattern some.  My finished

quilt measures 10-1/2" x 13". In

the book it measured 8-3/4" x 11".

I don't know about the other quilts

in the book.  I do plan on making 

more.  You do get a total of six

quilt patterns in the book.

Thanks for stopping by!!!

I can do all things

Halloween Fabric- What to Make???

I've been working on my daughter in laws' baby shower!  So exciting because it's in two more weeks!  Once the shower is over I can post pictures, but not until.   

I just couldn't stay away from fabric.  I'm getting the itch to quilt. I thought I'd share some of my Halloween Fabric.  I'd really like to make a Mini #Halloween #Quilt or runner for my kitchen counter, but can't seem to decide on a pattern.  

Calling out for any suggestions.

Possible choices are:

 Halloween images/google

I guess you'll all have to wait to see what pattern I decide on!!!

Which one would you choose??

I'm so excited to share this mini quilt,  I've had the pleasure to be a tester for  Lorna McMahon @ Sew Fresh Quilts newest pattern!  

Here's a picture of just the top I sewed before realizing I had sewn the letter (I) upsized down! I did fix it!  I also changed the blue on the iron!  I decided to use gray as you will notice on the finished quilt below.

It's so adorable and you have the option of making it horizontal or vertical.  I choose to make the horizontal mini quilt because it best fits my wall space.  I'll be making this quilt again and again for a few of my friends. This mini quilt really makes a great gift for either a birthday, Christmas, or a just because gift for yourself! 

Lorna includes full color photos and diagrams with easy to follow instructions.  Her list of materials, fabric requirements  and sewing directions makes this quilt fun to sew! This mini quilt measures about 17" x 32".

Here's my finished quilt!!  

Here's a picture of the backing and the binding I used!

Thank you Lorna for allowing me to be a tester! 

Don't forget to visit Lorna's site to see both mini quilt options!
