    Default Thimbleberries Christmas Pint Size Quilt

    I found a Thimbleberries book called "Pint Size Traditions" at the Goodwill used book store for only $1.99. This was my first attempt at a mini quilt. There were many small pieces and was a real challenge, but I like how it turned out.

    I am ready to go for another pattern in the book.

    Pattern has size at 26 x 28 inches but I didn't have quite enough fabric for the wide border so went with what I had. so ended up at 22 x 24 which is the perfect size for where I want to use it.

    It's very pretty, and you did use a lot of pieces.

    We have a mini quilt swap sign up going on right now. All welcome.
