I machine quilted two tops I have had pieced for some time. One is a baby quilt for a soon-to-be-born baby, and the other (twin size) I will show after I present it to the new owner.
But I can show you these pictures.
See the dime and the penny in the last picture? That is to show scale. I tell ya...these pieces are tiny. This is a "twister" pattern from Primitive Gatherings. Eighty-one little 2-1/2" squares to start with, then trimmed down with the special template (the tiny, shiny square in the second picture--it's 1-1/2" square). Then sewn back together.
I am supposed to press the seams open before sewing the rows together. That can wait until tomorrow!
I had planned to do a couple painting projects tomorrow (my husband and daughter are out of town until Saturday night...DH doesn't like when I paint when he's home...can't stand the fumes), but now I'm watching Timmy most of the day (9 AM to 8:30 PM). Maybe he will sleep a lot ;)

I've made this tiny twister--kind of time consuming for something so little, isn't it? : )
Your colors are so beautiful!
Cute! I love Kansas trouble fabrics!
