    Default MINIATURE QUILT

    Here's an 8 1/2" x 11" Flying Geese quilt made from scraps of 1930's reproduction fabrics. I love making tiny quilts and some day I think that's all I will make. I need to use up alot of my stash before that happens.

    OMG, I don't know how you do that! I had to do just a few small pieces the other day and was ready to throw the whole machine out the window! lol Couldn't keep everything lined up evenly.

    Yours is gorgeous! I'm amazed, you're just too talented Barb!!

    Love it. We have a lady in our quilt guild who only makes miniatures. My sister recently started doing them, too - I can do them if I paper-piece. In fact I have a log cabin pattern I want to do. But, I'm like Ruby - I want to throw the little pieces and the machine out the window.

    It's darling, Barb! I was just watching Eleanor Burns making flying geese quilts. Definitely one of my favorite patterns. Love the fabrics!

    Absolutely love it. You are one talented lady. I would never have the skill or patience to do anything this small.


    Blankets wrap you in warmth, quilts wrap you in love

    A quilt is something you make to keep someone you love...WARM.....

    What I make with my hands, I give of my heart.

    Very pretty. Love the fabrics, some are very similar to what I am using for my blocks of the month.

    Awww....that is so pretty!!! I'm playing around with left over fabric (black/red/white) using the Eleanor Burns f/g ruler. Its a lot of fun, although they are not as small as yours. Will post pics when I get it done. Love your mini-quilt, it is adorable! Wanting to get some of those 30s reproduction fabrics too!
