The mini quilt

Done!  And just in time to go up with the fall decorations.


Done on a tea stained sort of muslin from Jo-Ann's, it's about 12 inches square.  It's whole cloth, I took an old feather circle stencil from Dritz and quilted it for practice.  It came out so nice it's staying on the wall.

Thread is Gutterman hand quilting, #2453 (red) and 5322 (blue).  The binding is Worth pre-packaged in berry, I believe.  It was a scrap I had in the stash.

Not quite up to the infamous 7 stitches to the inch of Amish fame, I'm about 5/inch, a look which I quite like. 

Now I'm ready to tackle my log cabin star.
