Mini Quilt
1 Attachment(s)
My guild is trying to keep people connected even though we are not meeting. So they arranged a mini quilt exchange. I "met" a new friend from this, and enjoyed making her this mini. it is paper pieced (my first time) and comes to about 15" x 15"

You did a fabulous job! Everything really pops against the blue background.
|
Reminds me of Steven Hawking's "Remember to look at the stars." Beautiful. I have been gravitating to patterns with smaller pieces and find it frustrating. Good for you and your friend.
|
Oh wow! Your "new" friend really lucked out getting you as a swap partner, that is fantastic!
|
It's beautiful.
|
What a lovely quilt!
|
Love the stars- they pop nicely against the blue background. Well done!
|
Yours' is really nice. I love it. On my first PP I was all thumbs, had to refit each piece more than once, put the wrong pieces in the wrong places, looked at the directions and illustrations a dozen times, cried and prayed both, a real nightmare but got it made. I still have to review the directions every time I start one.
|
Adorable mini!
|
You did a great job! Beautiful mini!
|
Very pretty.
|
Amazing mini quilt.
|
Love your mini quilt and the star patterns you chose are just super. For a first-time paper pieced you chose some tricky patterns - I am very impressed!!!!!

Haha. you don't think that star that is cut off on the side was intetionally designed that way, do you? I totally botched that one, but saved the "better" half! but hey, opportunity for a design choice and i like that it trails off the edge! |
Your mini is a winner! You have a new friend and a learned a new technique so that's another win.
|
Great mini...lucky swap partner!
|
Fantastic job! Such a happy mini!
|
Beautiful mini and wonderful workmanship.
|
How fun! You did a wonderful job on it and I am sure she will treasure it always.
|
Beautiful! Love the way the stars just seem to glow against the background!
|
Your quilt is so pretty and this is a great way to stay connected to you guild partners. Thanks for sharing.
|
Wonderful mini quilt!

Good for you for trying paper piecing. Your quilt is charming. My oldest son is an astronomer, and my husband is an astronmy hobbyist. I bet they would envy your new friend for this great little quilt.https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/heart.gif
