well mine will be multi-colored so hopefully there will be enough colors that you like to compensate for the ones that you like less.

I have completed my 1st one, I must say this was a very different process for me. I did a scrappy modern and offset the center, then quilted with straight lines off set, , like driving in the rain. I didn't know what to look at for a guide. Now I'm going to work with a solid gray fabric and a color for pop, no pattern just solid I think I'll try the circle pattern for the quilting.This is so hard since my trademark work is texture everywhere.

This is my first quilt swap of any kind! (can you say nervous!?!) But, I figured a mini quilt was a great way to get a foot in the door. Come on in, the waters fine!

I am just looking right now. I will make a decision before the deadline. Have to finish my other two swaps first then if time, will do this. I have a concept of what needs to be done. Will keep on back burner.

I'm a newbie at the modern mini quilt challenge. I am hoping the one I made meets the qualifications, and if for some reason it doesn't, it was still fun to make and I will chalk it up as a learning experience.
