    I attended a sew n' go class last November and made a small embroidered mini quilt. I was an easy sell and purchased the little miniature rack in a heartbeat, as I just knew there would be many more of these fun little projects in my future. Since then I have been having a ball "Lovin the little mini's" and making one for each season or occasion. They are fast, fun and the perfect break from the larger and more time consuming projects. I am currently making a May Day Basket, but in the meantime, here's a look at what I have so far.....

    The one that started it all!

    These are wonderful and so inspiring. Did you use separate patterns - or designs from a book?

    Your mini's are great! I saw mini racks like that at the Cincinnati quilt show.

    Have you ever joined the monthly Doll Quilt swap here on the Board? You would love it!

    Very cute, I especially like the St Patricks day one. This gives me an idea to make door decorations.

    Love your minis. I made some minis's for my counter at work for every holiday. Did not know there was a mini rack to put them on. Like the idea which, is a better way to display them. I need one for my "Maxine" mini I made. Everyone loves her. Thanks for sharing.
