Love these! It is just like a quilt show of minis! I often use leftover appliques from the quilts that I make. I have trouble throwing out the larger pieces of pretty fabric when there isn't enough for another small quilt.

Nice mug rugs. I'm going to tackle this after I return from holiday. I do have some rectangular ones made up, but since we are to do a square one for this swap, I won't post pics. as I don't want to confuse anyone. I'm thinking of doing a 10 inch scrappy block, since I have so many scraps. But that is open to change depending on my whim when I return.

It is fun to learn new things here, huh?
You should be able to get a viewer from a local quilt store. When you look through it the colors go away and the value is apparent. This refers to the strength of the color, or how strong it plays with the other colors when used together.
Jaba and applique... Those mug rugs are lovely!

I'm not in the swap, but want to thank you... I learned something new today! I have always referred to as railroading your borders (just cutting them on the length instead of the width of the fabric) I had no idea it was referring to the way the fabric was milled.
Great samples everyone, absolutely LOVE your work horse ones!
