It is a beautiful mini. I can't even imagine sewing all those tiny pieces together.

Very nice job. If you don't mind a suggestion, work on trying to make your bindings 1/4 inch, especially on mini's. You will surprized at the difference. Cut your binding 1 7/8 inch wide, fold in half lenghwise , sew on at 1/4 inch. I think you might like it.

WOW!! I would never go there! If I did, it wouldn't turn out like yours - it would end up in a box somewhere as a UFO! You did a beautiful job! Love it!!!
