The finished size of each is about 12 x 12.
Love the eyes on this guy.
I appliqued the shapes and then echo quilted around them. This was really fun and makes for a cool effect.
I loved making these mini size quilts. They helped me practice some skills, especially the binding and mitered corners. Pretty tidy, if I do say so myself. Also, they're entirely made out of scraps I had on hand. Bonus.
Satisfied customer.
Now I just need to figure out how to hang them...

Great scrap busting mini quilts....I SO JEALOUS!
Did you use a pattern or come up with this layout yourself???
It's GREAT either way...NICE JOB DONE!
I love these! Have you tried Scotch Adhesive strips for hanging? They work great for little quilts like this.
Absolutely fantastic! I love the shadow quilting on these.
Those are so ridiculously stinking cute! :)
Great work Katie!
(I have some mini quilts I still need to make for Steiger... and you're inspiring me)
Absolutely cute!
Did you echo-quilt with a walking foot?? Your stitches are so even... that must have been a gazillion times of stopping and turning for all the echo lines!
Cheers,
Christine

Claire: It's a free tutorial on the Michael Miller web site. The link isn't working right now. I'll update it when it's fixed.
Sunshine: I used my regular presser foot. I don't really like my walking foot!
OMG! You are the craft master.
Very cute--kinda late now, but I really like hanging with triangles--just sew small squares folded into triangles into the corners when you sew on the binding. Then stick dowels in between and hang on a nail or whatever. You can write on one triangle as a label or hang another dowel in the bottom set as a weight, if necessary. Got the idea from the Alzheimers Art Quilt site.
I love your mini quilts. Beautiful colors and quilting.
These are totally awesome. I have a robot/space love myself. These are SO great. I love that Cogsmo line from Cosmo Cricket. Great job!
Very cute Katie - and it looks like your customer is happy. I love the colors.
