Here's a couple of little things I have done this weekend. My cut pieces in the log cabin were 3/4" wide and not PP, but did use a foundation. The 4P blocks finished at 1/2"; they were leftovers from the log cabin :wink:

Wonderful work, lady! I have used 3/4 in strips also, but I've not been brave enough to attempt a classic log cabin yet, but it's on my list!

beautiful, wow that is small

Very cute. I love the framed art.

wow

Beautiful!

Beautiful!
Sorry about the double posting. My computer is tired tonight!

Beautifully done the both :D :thumbup:

Great job. :-D

looking lovely...well done.

That is TINY!! You have a lot of patience!!

Becca - love your avatar - Another cat!! Gotta luv this one also - look at those eyes, he really sees something..makes me laugh to look at him/her.....lol

I love that you framed those pieces, how effective is that?Will you be hanging that in your sewing room? Your Log Cabin will be beautiful, love your choices of fabric.

Thanks for sharing.

Pretty!

Those are so pretty-so gentle! I use 1" on log cabin quilts--but I'd not want to venture to 3/4"!!!

So pretty!! What a tiny piece! These just amaze me.

Wow!!! What a great idea to decorate your sewing area!!!! It's beautiful!!

Well done!

Beautiful work.

very nice. love the framed work

Like the idea with the frame! ;-)

those are lovely!!

First of all thank you for the kind comments. No, this little spring quilt is not going into my sewing room, but to a friend who said the right things at the right time. Hope she doesn't mind that it's just a little wonky in the frame. It's not supposed to be :(.
I have this challenge to myself when I make these little ones--only use what's in the scrap bins. I don't purposely cut strips that size, I take them from my 3/4" strip bin, so fabric selection can be limited. But it doesn't take much fabric :thumbup: Admittedly if I need, say as in this quilt more light fabrics, I will cut a 3/4" strip from the end of a 1 1/2" scrap strip. But only if I have to :D

Those are very creative and I saw a kit that had pieces 1/2 inch or less. I like yours much better.

Lovely miniatures :D:D:D

:thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks D. Are you talking that the pieces were 1/2 inch finished making them come from 1" cuts? What all did the kit entail? G

Love your tiny little piece of art! I have a log cabin to make that is PP-a favorite way to make a miniature.

No the pieces were 1/2 in or less, I think they were made as a joke.

Talented & Patient! I could never...but I am so impressed and love the 4P in the frame! Great Job!

Beautiful. I have been working with small pieces and find I like them. I dont think I have tried anything that small.

Very pretty! What a great way to show your appreciation to someone who shared words of wisdom.

OH is this "the world's smallest crazy quilt" kit? A friend of mine gave me the "kit" in a bunch of small scraps she saved for me. I got the last laugh as I made a little crazy quilt with the fabrics, had to add some they did give enough pieces. :roll: Then framed it in a little frame similar to this one. She got a good laugh as did the other guild members! :lol:


Thanks again for your kind words, everyone.

Those are precious little log cabins.... thanks for posting!

Beautiful!! One question, is the piece in the frame quilted with a backing and all?

No, what I did was take the flimsy cardboard that was in the frame, cut a piece of batting (LT WT) that size, affixed it with spray glue. When I put the yellow borders on I made sure they were wide enough to wrap around to the back of the cardboard, and lightly glued in place. Because the cardboard was so lightweight I stitiched through all the layers (cardboard, too) lengthwise down the two sides of the "quilt". Cleaned off the glass, plopped the quilt into the frame and put the picture back on. I didn't worry about a preservationist perspective on this.

These are wonderful! I admire that you work with such small pieces. Thanks for the info on how you framed the second one.

WOW!!!! :shock: Amazing!!! :thumbup:

Both are terrific! Great colors, and you do really nice work! :)

I love the framed one. It has a striking simplicity. Like a sophisticated folk art.

Very pretty. Now that is tiny!
