Wendy at theconstantquilter.blogspot.com had mentioned in December that she had purchased Pam Buda's book "Vintage Patchwork". The book has 12 projects and she was planning on doing one project a month. Since I had the book I decided to tag along.
The first project is called "North and South". The quilt is only 8 1/2" x 12 1/2". The center blocks are 4" finished. The flying geese are 1" x 2" finished. I must say that the tiny blocks were a bit of a challenge for me. But I persevered finished this mini quilt.
I decided to hang it sideways on my wall. I'm glad it is finished and I'm happy with the way it turned out.
Here is Block 2 of 20 for Pat Sloan's sew along "Flower Bouquet".

This block is called Bulb. The blocks come out every Wednesday. Block 3 was just posted. Hoping to get it made today.
The weather is still cold and still no snow....knock on wood. So I am getting some real sewing done. Staying warm in my sewing room. I'll have more to show you later this week.
I hope you are staying warm and getting some sewing done.
Hugs, Cathy
Nice work on the "north and south" wall hanging--
ReplyDeleteIt looks so pretty hanging on that hanger--
luv, di
Great little finish. Just saw Randy's and you both have done a great job. I like how you've been able to display it too.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little quilt! I'd like to join in, but don't know if I can do it.
ReplyDeleteThis is titled after a book by Elizabeth Gaskell that I adore! That makes me even more anxious to sew along!
Such a cute little mini quilt. You have done a really nice job. The hanger adds so much to it.
ReplyDeleteI like your little wallhanging and your block is so pretty in those fabrics.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet little quilt--love how you have it displayed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic finish! I love it hanging sideways too. I will link it in with my post (along with Randy's) right now. Good job!! Those tiny pieces are a challenge!
ReplyDeleteSmall piecing on your mini quilt and a nice finish. Looks good on the little hanger.
ReplyDeleteThat Pat Sloan is moving along on those blocks. It must be one a week. I saw she was already on block three.
Beautiful mini, I love it! I have a lot of difficulty piecing blocks as small as those flying geese, yours look absolutely perfect!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful finish and a great way to display it.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute mini with terrific colors and I really like that sideways display!
