| A bit windy today! |
Fat Quarter Shop had a fun mini quilt challenge for the month of March. Sort of a quilting play on March Madness. I chose to make the
Thimble Blossoms Swoon mini by Camille Roskelley. I used some of my Aunt Grace prints for the swoon blocks. I ended up not following the pattern entirely because I added star cornerstones instead of regular squares. The blocks were a bit soft colored so I used a bright red Lecien Child's Smile print for the stars. I wanted to spice it up a little!!!
The pattern is fun and I love working with the smaller pieces. Minis are just adorable! and I can add it to
my quilt wall. A lot of people are putting minis up and making quilt walls. I love the look of each and everyone I've seen. There are many on IG.
This is my favorite block in the quilt! That green Aunt Grace print is my absolute favorite right now!!!
So now for the fun stuff! Fat Quarter Shop is going to give away a
mini quilt pattern to one of you lovelies.
HERE is the link to their mini patterns. Take a look and leave me a comment telling me which you would choose.
FQS is also having a super fun giveaway of their own!!! Check out the details
HERE!!! Join in on the fun and share your minis using the hashtag #fqsmarchminis
on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
P.S. I'll post the measurements for the star cornerstones on another post!
Happy Sewing!

I like the Summer Star Mini at FQS. Have not made a mini yet and this looks like something I could do.
Ooo, summer star is pretty! I love your quilt and the fabrics you chose!
I love your mini swoon but I also like Red letter day. Actually I'm loving most of the minis right now to tell the truth. Cdahlgren at live dot com
Rise & Shine Mini is the one I've been wanting to make. It would be my first mini :)
I like Blossom mini, but the Swoon is also a favorite.
This little quilt is so pretty. I love this vintage block, so nice to see you bring it back to life in this pattern.
Adorable! I love the added stars. I think I would like to make Red Letter Day first, but then I'd probably make a whole lot more once I got started. LOL Thanks for the fun!
I like the Mini Northern Lights.
Love the stars you've added to your mini Swoon! Miss Rosie's patterns are always great and I love the look of Tidbit:-)
I really like the Little Bites Sampler mini. So cute!
That was really difficult. There are so many I would be very happy to have but I'll go for Rise & Shine.
wow, so many cute pattern its hard to choose. But my eyes on mini blossom pattern, I think this is the time I need to challenge myself make a "little" complication pattern.
Thank you for giveaway, Erin

Love the harvest time mini! Thanks for the chance!
There are so many great mini patterns on my wish list, but my first choice would be Thimble Blossoms Spools mini pattern. I've had my eye on it for ages but have yet to actually buy it.
Wow! I had no idea they had so many sweet mini quilt patterns. The one that caught my eye was the Mini Come What May pattern. The woven look really appeals to me!
There are so many cute mini patterns but if I had to choose, I would choose Canning Season.
I like the Mini Stitch quilt - the one with the little sewing machines on it.
I love the mini spools pattern by Thimbleblossoms

I love the mini tiny dancers quilt,so pretty.
Oh so hard to choose, I didn't realise there were so many mini quilts. I would choose Thimble Blossoms Starlight Mini.
I love the Dwell mini by Thimble Blossoms, and also the mini Pears by Fig tree. Actually I like all of the Fig tree and Thimble Blossom designs, so hard to choose. x

Very hard to choose a favorite Mini pattern. Fig Tree and Thimble Blossom have so many special ones that I want to make. I think the new 'Canning Jar' Mini is my favorite - as it reminds me of my mom's full fruit cellar. Happy Times!
Oh what a fun choice of mini quilts! I fell in love with the mini Canned Pears quilt - my kitchen has a collection of Pears and this quilt would be perfect on the back of the breakfast area bench! Thank you for this fun giveaway!
Warm regards,

These things are like potato chips.. can not eat just one!
Come what May seems like a good place to start.
The mini Stitch quilt pattern by Fig Tree jumped out at me when I looked through the patterns. I do love your mini Swoon also, I have wanted to make a Swoon quilt for some time.
I didn't realize there were so many different mini patterns available now! I probably would start with one of the Thimble Blossoms patterns - Swoon or Dwell. I love your quilt wall, by the way. :)
I love the Summer Star Mini! Your mini Swoon is so.....pretty! The fabrics are so bright and fun!!! Really nice!!!
Hmmmm...tuff choice...I love several of them but I think for my 1st one I would choose Little Stitch and hang it in my sewing room. Those little sewing machines are too cute! Thank you:)
I'd love to make the Mini Stitch Quilt Pattern from Fig Tree to hang in my sewing studio. Love your mini and the fabrics you chose!!

I'd choose the little bites "sample". Or the swoon mini. Or the red letter day. Gah! Too hard to choose!
I love the Fun Size Quilt Book. Love the mini Pinwheel Block right on the front cover. I like how one Block is a different color and sort of 'pops' out at you. Mini's are my favorite quilt size right now - my older sewing machine loves this size too :)!
I like the August Make it Mini quilt pattern. Thanks for the chance to win the give-a-way.
