Fresh for February I spent a bit of time going through my flickr contacts and groups in my reader over the weekend. (Probably 1500 images!) A few favorites jumped out at me and I thought I would share -- 1. Created with fd's Flickr Toys I also have a favor to ask. Happy Monday! Amy
My Blog | Just another WordPress site Mini Quilt Month – day 2: online tutorials » whip up In honour of my just released book Whip Up Mini Quilts , published by Chronicle books I declare April to be Mini Quilt Month! Every day this month I will posting tutorials and features – all mini quilt related. To kick start mini quilt month – I want to point to a whole bunch of free online tutorials to help you make your own mini quilt. handmade by alissa – she made these placemats for a present – they are so cool – whipup featured a tutorial by weeks ringle a few years back [ pt1 + pt2 ] on how to make something similar – but basically they are mini-quilts – love them. Also try your hand at making this doll quilt – the tutorial is in a four parts at sew mama sew and this sew mama sew mini quilt uses an interesting method + Elizabeth’s advent calendar quilt was truly inspiring. I really like this free-style mini quilt – lots of overlapping scraps and free-motion stitching. I liked this embroidered alphabet quilt when we first featured in a while back.

A dear friend that I had made through this wonderful industry reached out to me at the beginning of last year and suggested a few things. One day I would be like- "Yes!
