    OK I have 3 minis done and the 4th is in design. All meet the size requirement. Will post pictures as soon as the 4th one is done and I will get them registered. Just FYI for your count Leslie.....

    So here are the minis I made for the challenge. I will be registering them today. These were really fun! Here is a funny about one of them called Quilter's Dream - Rginalovesfabric was nice enough to send me a box of scraps and the Quilter's Dream mini is what I made as a thank you (its being mailed Saturday). But I liked it so much that I am making another one for the Ahlzheimer's auction! If she is looking she should recognize quite a few fabrics so many thanks to Regina for contributing to this project and others such as the Comfort Dolls!

    Love them all! Great job! I registered one 3 days ago and still don't have a # yet. She must really be backed up!

Fells strange to do something this small, but it was fun.[ATTACH=CONFIG]343202[/ATTACH]First one is called "Memories" #10810, second one is "Broken Memories" #10811

    Got the registration numbers for my minis yesterday - so 5 going out in SAaturday's mail. Trying to figure out how to do either a Chinese Lantern or Celtic Illusion in small enough scale to qualify....

    My sweet Aunt Ellen died last Friday of Alzheimer's. It was a shock to me since she has not had it as long as my Dad. She was a very giving person and loved to bake specialty cakes and paint with oils. I miss her so much.

    Linda you can make a mini and dedicate to your aunt. You can do that when filling in the registration form. And yeah, these go quickly. They are also fun!
