I made a little rectangle miniquilt that I aimed to use as a table runner, but it's hanging on the wall in my sewing room, and I kind of like that a lot at the moment. This little miniquilt reminds me about how I want to try new things this year, like using more variety in my quilting, so I think it might just stay in my sewing room for a while.
I love the color of the thread I used for hand-stitching. It's quite possibly my favorite shade of blue ever! My hand-stitching is far from even, but I do still love the look of hand-stitching, even if it is slightly wonky like mine.
Thanks again, Fat Quarterly and Aurifil! This was a lot of fun! Hop on over to the Fat Quarterly blog to read more about my Aurifil experience.
Great design, Elizabeth! That blue is beautiful and I think your stitching is great, far better than what I can do. Looking forward to seeing what other new things you try this year!
