Internet id working good enough today that I finally got to see them. They are adorable!! I just love them!
|
Oh, they are really great! I love them all, but the one with the orange border just stands out. Great choice of borders.
|
Ducky is right, All three are great, but the orange one just pops!

I have been hard at work most of the day, which is a change for me, there was thunder and lightening etc so had to keep the computer off.
See how hard I am working at putting some stippling on the mini's! |

So then since I was so hard at work I decided I might as well push on and finish them up. So did a little more and then tossed binding on them all.

And then, That is not all, I managed to slip in the OBW one as well. And so it is done! so that if four complete projects done today, I must be on some kind of roll.
The funny part is I was having issues doing it on the small machine (before I got the bright idea to do them on the embroidery machine) so I tossed i ton the big table, just a little big of overkill! [ATTACH=CONFIG]42729[/ATTACH] |
Your sewing is beautifully done--wrong side tells all! When using 1 " strips I trim seams to about 1/8th of an inch--less bulk, piecing lays flatter. Love the contrast of dark and light.

I think you must qualify for the prize - getting the most quilts completed in one day. Well done.

I tend not to trim much of anything, but I will think about it for sure, that or just sew the 1/8 seam to start with. |

Trimming is time consumming :thumbdown:
|
probably why I don't tend to do it, I don't square things up or anything either.
Chances are that I would just change to the 1/8 inch seam allowance to start with, save all the trimming for someone that has more time. |
Beautiful work CB.

Good Job on all of these!!! :D :D :D Love that OBW it's gorgeous :D :D :D I love how you used the embroidery machine to quilt them!!! |
That quilt is awesome! Mini's must be the latest thing...I just saw another post about tiny blocks here also.
You must be a very patient piecer. Lovely work. |
I am pretty sure that I am not all that patient, it is strip pieced so it went fast, and they are easy to put on point. You just need to know where to slice and dice, I am going to be doing a tut soon on it,
|
ooh, I'll have to check that one out! I missed the tutes here. The people who take the time to share their information are amazing on the board. Keep us posted for sure!
|
Oh for sure, I have been requested to do one or two. I wold say that it keeps me out of trouble but that would be lying.
|
LOL!! Can't wait to see them, then. Cracking up over your keeping out of trouble comment!!!! :lol:
|
Sure, I needed more fabric so that I could do the tut's, I really had no plans on doing this many quilts this year, some of them I might do in the mini, they will get what they need to know and I will save time and fabric.
|
Really nice, CB. Good job.

Beautiful minis, CB! And the OBW is stunning! AND the stippling ROCKS! :D
|
Oh my. That is amazing. I can't imagine working on anything that small. Great job.
|
Oh my does that look nice. How many hours did that take. I love it.
|
Thanks everyone, the machine does a lot of the work thankfully.
I didn't keep track of the hours, probably playing around for 2 days other than the OBW one. It was done before hand. I was just playing around. |
Wow -- that is some great work!
|
neat cute but they are to tiny for me lol
|
Very cute. Perfect for doll quilts!
|
Thank you ladies, I am very happy with them, and please look in a couple of weeks from now when we are doing the mini mystery. I hope to see lots of doll quilts come out of it.
