Mini-quilts make special gifts!

A few years ago, I created a tutorial for this style of

Christmas tree mini-quilt.  The original quilt hangs in my sewing studio.

Recently when a friend visited me, she mentioned how much she liked the quilt.

She also collects gnomes.....so I put the 2 together

and came up with this gift for her.

The next mini-quilt I made was for my Aunt Louise.

Her birthday is in November, but she just received her quilt.

I need to make more of these.

And finally this cute little mug rug for my

sister who LOVES snow.

Almost forgot, I made myself another mini-quilt.

This one started by playing with half-square triangles to make stars.

I decided to combine them. It could be used as a table runner,

but I hung it on my studio wall.

Same star, just different arrangements of the half-square triangles.

Here's an updated picture of my studio display....

makes me smile!

Thanks for visiting my neglected blog :)
