    Minda, that is sooo gorgeous, looks similar to the buttercup log cabin BOM, just love the layout in yours, and the colours, so beautiful. I've never done a miniature, looks like fun

    Minda,
    You miniature quilt is gorgeous.

    I hate to throw away anything. I save my corners that get cut off when making 1/2 square triangles. I sew them together, cut them down and use them for miniature doll house quilts/rugs. Broken Dishes is a great pattern for this.

    Minda,
    That is so beautiful. I can't wait to see your next one. I like minis, just haven't had the time to get started. My current to do list is going to take me 2-3 years to complete, maybe longer. I'm trying not to plan beyond my current list becaus the kids will be in school and I'll be going back to work about that time. Thank you for sharing the link to your photos.

    I used to make a lot of mini's when the kids were little. It was so funny when my 5yr old would ask why that pot-holder was so big :)
