The following are mini's I did for the upcoming school fundraiser. For the blocks I only use left overs and scraps--I will only cut off of a fat quarter or larger for borders and bindings. Many triangle squares are the left overs from FG etc.

Finished blocks are 3 1/2 "--left overs from a snowball quilt

1 1/2" blocks--total size 7 1/2 x 8 1/2 "

Wow, these mini-quilts like this just boggle my mind! Amazing that you all can work in such small terms like this. Great work!

It really isn't that hard is it? I am so happy to see you taking off like this!! You are just doing wonderful with these!!! I love them all!

Thanks to all of you and especially Rhonda. I've found the minis to be such an addiction--what am I going to do with those 2 and 3 yard pieces of fabric I have (just kidding) Quilt guild friends even save pieces for me :lol: :lol: :lol:

You did a real good job of matching the HSTs on each side of the sashings in your Bear's Paw and yes it is still a Bear's Paw. Great Job on those! Matching those is not easy I should know! I have done a lot of those over the years!! That can be the hardest part about making the Bear's Paws.

I love the purple fabrics you used in this also. I have a strong preferance for a lot of contrast so this is great.

You have certainly learned the
technique of working with the
mini blocks. They are wonderful.
Hope you do well with the fund raiser.
