Mini Quilt Monday

I started this a year ago, put it away after the holidays last year, and finally got it out to finish for Jacquie's Joy in the New Year Challenge.


This is my first finish for the challenge, with three more to go.

It measures 16 x 31 inches (40 x 78 cm). I put tabs on the back so I could hang it on my wall, but it would work as a table runner as well.


I love the dark binding next to the white. The back is the same material as the second tree from the left. It is pretty wild, and doesn't exactly go with the binding, but who will be looking at the back, right?

I quilted this last year, so you'll notice that there are some spots where it is a bit off, but I refuse to unpick. I like to call it progress.

Continuing with the tree theme I think this quilt would be so awesome to make! Maybe in a few years...

  1. I love your trees! I love the simplicity of them. Did you follow a pattern or make it up yourself?
