Mini Quilt Monday

What is this rainbow-colored goodness? Why, it's my first mini quilt! (I'm not counting coasters. Too mini.)


I used a bunch of scraps from some of my favorite fabrics to get the ROYGBIV effect. There's Heather Ross, Denyse Schmidt, Anna Maria Horner, Amy Butler and more in there.


In several of the rows I added in a random fabric in the same color, just for fun. Don't you think rainbows are the happiest things?


The back, although, to tell the truth, I think I like it even better than the front. :-) I really love the way the quilted zigzags look on the white fabric.

This little octopus makes me smile. Hopefully this is the first of many minis!

This is such a beautiful and inspiring little quilt!

I also want to thank you so much for nominating me for the handmade olympics! (I seriously don't know how to reply to someone who's left a message on my blog :) It's such an honor even to be considered worthy!

Thanks for your kind words in the past, too.
