Mini Star Quilt


Yesterday at Sit and Sew, I sewed down the binding on this mini quilt. It is made with the left over stars from the Fairfax County Fair quilt. It measures 17.5" x 22". I saw a picture of it in a magazine (no pattern) and made it from the picture. Not very easy to do and so it has a few mistakes in it and some things I would do differently!!! But I do like it! Now to find a little spot to hang it!

Also finished the first block on Written in Thread quilt. The directions are written in a strange way--instead of going block by block and giving the colors of each item in the block, it goes color by color and lists what is that color, so you have to look for the item in a long list of colors---I will be winging it a lot in this quilt, I think! Definitely out of my box!!!!!!

Let quilting help you make someone smile!
