Here's what I did with the trimmings after I completed ...

The only new cut into the fabric was for the backing. Otherwise, it was all scraps!
It's a mini of sorts ... 13-1/2" square with the rails being 1/2" finished and an 1/8" flange.
The handquilting is my 2nd effort at this! I was surprised that I actually got to enjoying it this time, even if it isn't the most even and straight. While I have absolutely NO interest in a big handquilting project, my plan is to do all my mini's by hand, to develop this skill just a little. Thanks for your interest!
