Mini Wednesday

Hi there! It seems I'm only able to post mid week these days.

First, desertskyquilts helped me name this mini. Many thanks to my wonderful blogger friend!!

Meet "Green Pastures"

Here's the latest creation.

 & a bit of the process.

I'm so happy to be using even the smallest scraps.

I've used a sky background & fussy cut clouds from another scrap.

Finally, and you really have to squint, I added tiny birds to make things a bit more interesting.

I'm naming this one "Long Journey Home."

Mini Wednesday

"At the Pond" is the name I've given the mini you're about to see develop.

I've started with a mottled cream background & a McKenna Ryan subtlety faded blue green fabric.

Add to that a sandy area with a darker brown to lend foreground depth. Then add fish from a great fabric I've had in my stash for years....laugh out loud! 

Isn't this fabric great?? I didn't have a purpose when I bought it but knew that one of these days it would come in handy.

Got to have a crane to scavenge for fish.

Now for some greenery!

I'm striving for an oval shape on a rectangle background. Not quite there but I'm on the right track.

Perfect & all quilted & bound. This one measures 13" by 14"
