I took the day off work today because I had some personal business to take care of, but once that was over, I went right to my sewing room.
I finished the second row of Lori's Row Along (I will post pictures soon), I made a few granny squares (yes, I know, I'm super late getting on those) and I decided to get started on a new project.
You might remember that I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that I had lots and lots of quilting books. Well, one of these books is Konda Luckau's Simply Charming Minis.
This afternoon, I thought it was time to make a mini from the book. The one I chose is Mosaic. I used scraps for the coloured squares and a fat quarter in a very light blue for the background. The binding is a darker blue.
The mini finishes at about 13" square so it is perfect for a mini wall quilt or small table topper.
I see many more of these cuties in my future... The book is full of fun minis and I love that they go together super fast!
And what have you been finishing up this week?
Linking up at Crazy Mom Quilts for Finish It Up!
Have a great weekend everyone!

That is adorable! I may have to check out that book! Can't wait to see what else you make from it!
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty, fresh quilt. I'm not familiar with the book, but now I'm curious! I didn't plan on making a quilt today, but I did! I'll be sharing it maybe tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteLove your mini! It's adorable.
ReplyDeleteA great quilt!
ReplyDeleteI don't know this book - would you recommend it??
Just so perfect!
ReplyDeleteWhat does it matter if you're super late to get onto the granny squares? I haven't started any but I'm going to, one day, when I've made up the kits I bought first! You know, one day!
