Default My Janome Sew Mini and Her First (Mini) Quilt! plus, Another Mini

I finally gave up and purchased an adorable Janome Sew Mini machine! I told myself it would be great if I need to go to someone else's house and mend something. That sounds like a good excuse, right? Anyway, the color is Honeycomb, so of course I named her Honey. The little yellow mini-quilt below, which is about the size of a large mug rug (9" x 11"), is the first item that I sewed on Honey. I used a pack of Moda Mini-Charms, Block Party by Sandy Gervais, and my Sizzix mini-tumbler die.

It just so happened that a Sewing Mates Adjust-Table that I already had fits Honey perfectly, so I have a bigger surface should I want to make a larger quilt or item using the little gal.

The second mini-quilt below measures 16" x 16" and was made with another Moda Mini-Charm pack, Color Theory by Vanessa Christenson. The pattern is called Cross-Eyed and is from the booklet Micro Mini Quilts by Moose on the Porch Quilts. I was trying very, very hard to be "random" when I made this one... I am not usually good at fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants stuff, I am more of an OCD planning type person (LOL). I'm not quite sure I achieved a good sort of random here. This will be a table-topper.

So lucky that the extension fits Honey! You did a great job on your first projects with her!

Isn't she beautiful. Excuses? Complete logical reasons for your NEED I'd say. Lovely little quits too. Show the next one you do please.
