GETTING A START ON THE NEW YEAR

I'm making progress on the quilt. I actually measured the blocks.  The pinwheels end up at 1.5" or 3/4 " each.  I'm not the mastermind of this madness, that would be Primitive Gatherings Pinwheel Garden.  the quilt finishes out at 22x28"  I only have about 1/4 done.  The piecing is the hardest part.  I have blocked off sections of the layout with post it notes just to keep track of where I am.I have also colored them in, but it was still hard to keep track.  Post-it's make it easier.   Primitive Gatherings has loads of awesome patterns for small scale quilts.  You should take a look PRIMITIVE GATHERINGS

  2. Your quilt is beautiful--miniatures are challenging and unforgiving. Jo Morton is releasing a book in January on quilts from her Little Woman club

  3. Oh, it is looking so good! You are much farther along on yours than I am on mine. Maybe this will inspire me to make some progress. : )

  4. I made a baby blanket based on this pattern but it wasn't miniature like yours is! I just recently found your blog when researching my fascination with miniature quilts and love it! Thanks for continuing to share and blog!
