Small Pieces

Mini Morris

by Ronna Robertson

We recently had our guild quilt show where we make 100 mini's to auction off for charity. Deb who was in charge packaged up some strips from my Morris Apprentice collection to see what people would do. Ronna's little lily is about 8" square.

Little Lily

by Joan Cooper

Joan's is a little bit bigger but not much. That's an impressive inner border there finishing to about 1/4 of an inch. I was lucky enough to buy this one.

Landscape by Noell Memmott

Noell made a field of flowers for her small landscape by piecing in the tulips.

I've also been trolling the internet looking for projects made with my fabric and have found several small things made out of little pieces.

The quilter at the Quilted Pineapple did an impressive feather on a mini called Redville, pieced out of the Moda Candy precuts for Metropolitan Fair.

Here's a tiny four-patch by Wendy on the Busy Thimble blog, also from Metropolitan Fair.

And here's another mini for the guild by Mary Watson, done from small pieces of the Civil War Homefront line and a shirting print for a neutral.

This is a larger quilt made from the Morris Apprentice and other prints from Antarabesque's blog:

She alternated two blocks and created interesting secondary patterns.

Thanks to all the stitchers who use my fabric in ways I'd never think of.
