I like to do minatures and the lastest one is a pattern by Carol Doak called Mariners Compass. It is for my guilds' aucion next month. It is 10" in size and contains 232 pieces. I need to quilt it and then it will be ready. It is also my avatar.

Beautiful!!!!

WOW ! Great Job :mrgreen:

How big is it ?

That blows me away!! :thumbup: :D

That is incredible work! What patience you must have to do such a tiny work of art! :thumbup:

WOW! that is just awesome!

That is just bluetiful!

Spectacular!

WOW... how do you get those tiny pieces under the quarter inch pressure foot....I am doing a quilt that has 1 1/2" half square triangles and I find this to be very challenging...cant image doing the size you are doing..

I love it!!! I will have to look that one up and see if i can get it for free. I am doing a quilt for my son and have two mariner compass type blocks already in the plan. have all but one of the blocks done in one of the patterns that I have. The other block is needing to be made from 12" to 24" or 36" not sure which size to make it.

Thanks for all of the comments. The little quilt is 10" by 10". My seams for this size are 1/8". They are fun to do and keep me out of trouble. hehe

I like that, Sandy! Kathy, it is a fabulous work!

Gorgeous!!!!!

Beautiful colors. You have way more patience than me...it is a work of art.

Fantastic work :D :thumbup:

What wonderful work. Tell me, is it easier to start with the bigger blocks, and downsize to learn the miniatures, or to learn the minis first because by then you are being more accurate?

To me, it doesn't make much difference which size you start with. I have more problems with the bigger blocks because I fail to cut a piece big enough to start with. This is paper piecing and the little ones are so much fun to do.

wow and I toss out things that small. Luv it.

How lovely? My question--How much quilting do you do on your little ones?

Wonderful miniature!
