I have finally found some time to make a start on my mini quilt for the 6-12" mini quilt swap on Flickr. Above is a sneak preview.
It is quite challenging as it can't be square or rectangular (I have found a clever way round this without resorting to a circle!), and must only use black and white with one other colour.
This is my first swap so I am quite excited. Unlike some other swaps I have observed, where you don't know who you are making for, we all know who are partners are. Mine is Mary from Portland Oregon and so I was really pleased to find a scrap of black and white fabric with writing on (which I have kept for years and years waiting for the right project) which has the word Mary on!
Just a wee reminder that Sew Mama Sew are having their massive giveaway day tomorrow, Monday May 17th. I was going to take part but then I realised it was only a few weeks since I did a giveaway (they are quite addictive) so I thought I would give it a miss this time but I will make sure I enter a few and see if I have any luck.
I have put a badge on the left hand side to make it really easy for you all to enter.
Good luck if you do!
I can't wait to see your mini quilt, the sneak looks amazing!!

oh dear, sorry brigit. Did think about entering but didn't get a reply from my email to Sew mama sew. Plus they did say they would delete any links to blogs that didn't have a giveaway post so didn't think I would get listed! I will do it next year, I promise!
