    I just finished this little wall hanging, which started as a project from Sally Collins' book, "Mastering Precision Piecing". Never did anything so small! I was pleasantly surprised how well the little blocks came out. I used straight-line and decorative stitches on my DSM to do the quilting. Hope you like it!

    well done! Fair warning, doing small work like this changes how your quilting future will go A 12" block with 12 pieces suddenly seems WAY to boring

    Yes. I can see this happening ! And the small ones are much easier to find a place for, both on a wall and in a storage box.

    Just an amazing quilt, especially that teeny tiny pink border! I have her book and the sample quilts are really incredible.
