Miniquilt

Today we all started school again after a two week vacation...
so a bit less time to spend quilting.
But this is how my miniquilt has turned out so far,

dutch spring mini quilt

The windmill in the middle and 4 tulips in the corners.
(hope you can recognize them as tulips)
Although it's not readdy yet,
I also started a miniquilt with ninepatch squares.

I'm off now using my precious time well... and start quilting!

Have a good day everyone!

Heleene, Your quilt is just lovely. Darn that we have jobs that take us away from our passions! Glad to have you back. Elizabeth

My favorite place is Holland in all this world ... you gave me a moment of wonderful warm memories of our many visits there ...

Beautiful quilt windmill. Anxious to see the finished product.

Heerlijk dat je na de vakantie alweer zo lekker aan de slag bent. Je mini quilt is prachtig. Ik heb in de vakantie niets geknutseld en ben zelfs nu nog niet begonnen...had het druk met de foto's, de was, bijlezen en ik heb een mega post gemaakt. Klinkt weer allemaal errug excuzeurig! Hoewel...vind ik daar net een woord uit: excuzeurig, dat is ook creëren. Mmm, ik kan er weer even tegenaan.
