Mini Petals quilt
 

On the New Year’s VQW I pieced the blocks for this little quilt from older sample fabrics plus a few brights from a recent charm pack. I backed it with fleece that had been gifted to me also many years ago….. but it does have a brand new batting … so not quite “free”
it is just 35 1/2” x 44 1/2” in size as I made it to “use up” the fleece, and had to piece it as it was.

I really like your unusual, but very pleasing, combination of colors on the top. Sweet little quilt.

Fine way to use what we have on hand. Its lovely!

Love the straight line quilting! And the colors!

Love the colors!

You did a great job using what you had and making a cute usable quilt for a little one. A winner all around.

Wonderful, so bright and colorful.

I did this pattern with some bright pastels from the stash inherited from my mother. The fabrics were cute children's fabric with flowers with faces, cartoon butterflies and frogs. I used some batting I inherited from a coworker's mother-in-law. Two months later, our workplace adopted a family for Christmas and the family had an 8 year old daughter. I was so excited to gift this quilt to her, as was my coworker who helped donate to the gift. A little off-topic, I know, but this is a quick and easy pattern and it makes a great gift.

Very striking! Love the colors.
