Mini Quilts with Camo Blenders

Mini Table Topper

When I got the Camo Blenders bundle from The Square Inch, I was so excited to start making something, but could not decide what to make. The colors are so pretty that I have several ideas in my head. After a few days of contemplating I decided to make a few mini quilts. You know I love making mini quilts. 

Camo Blenders by TSI

I decided on this block I saw in one of my Japan Quilt magazines (according to google translate the magazine is Patchwork Class - 2018 Edition)  and I scaled down the size a little bit. Since the weather is getting warmer, I thought I'll mix cool and warm colors. Don't they blend beautifully? 

The block is pretty simple and quick to do. I used 1.5" wide strips in here. The fabric is quilting weight cotton and it's super easy to work with. I used poplin solid for the combination. 

Deciding how to quilt is always tough for me and the best way when you're confused is to use simple quilting lines.

And since I am in the mood, I went ahead and made these 2 mug rugs. This is one of my go-to quilt projects to make when I have a lot of things going on in life. I made the mug rugs based on this tutorial. 

Camo Blenders in 10 Color Ways

I have a few more sets to make with the Camo Blenders! It's just a perfect blender fabric when you need something that can add zest to your projects! Camo Blenders have 10 colors and come in Yardage, Layer Cakes, Jelly Rolls, and Fat Quarters at The Square Inch. 

Now, I better go and finished a few more mug rugs! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Stay safe & Happy Sewing!

I love maple leaves

I always love autumn colors and the January challenge of India MQG is making stuff (patchwork) with WARM SOLID  colors. I was chatting with Mbak Hany and told her about the challenge and she showed me one of her new stash. It was pretty fabric with autumn leaves. That what really hit me. I started browsing and found one tutorial on maple leaf block from Country Lane Quilts. Based on that I made this mini quilt.

 a touch of green to show the life of a maple leaf from green to orange..though I'm not sure if it's gone through Red phase ;) 

once more 

Working with solid colors is quite fun. To mix and match the  color is quite a challenge it self. I think in the end, your quilt shows your moods :)

Until then...Happy Crafting :)
