Fate (aka the APQ UFO Challenge) has thrown me an easy challenge for the month. Number 8, the smallest and only mini quilt on my list, was chosen for this month. This is so welcome after a very busy and stressful January, combined with the fact that I'll be out of town for QuiltCon at the end of the month for five days. Plus short month.
I made these blocks way back when I made my mini for the Cotton and Steel Mini Swap. I can't believe that was a year and a half ago. These blocks were designed to create five 8" finished blocks from five 10" squares. I could finish this project up by simply adding triangles to square it up into a mini quilt, but as I think about it, I'm considering other options. Unfortunately, most other options would create more work for me. I do have the remainder of the layer cake from this fabric line still. I think I may aim for a baby quilt.
I'm linking up to the OMG February Goal Setting Link Up.

What a fun and colorful set of blocks...oh the possibilities. I look forward to seeing how you finish these this month!

Post authorThanks, Mel. I am too exhausted to go upstairs and touch fabric at the moment. But I think I'll pull out the layer cake and see what I could do to make this a little larger. Maybe a companion block to go with these...
