We're welcoming December and that means it's time for another Minis and More Parade!
Between preparing for the holidays and enjoying time with family and friends many of you made a sweet pillow from the free Scrappy Patchwork Pillow Tutorial on Sherri's blog.
This cute red pillow was made by my friend Mary. She can be found writing posts for her blog Needled Mom. Mary used some great red fabric scraps and added her own twist to Sherri's tutorial by using leftover HST's to create the center of her pillow. This pillow will have a home on Mary's couch near her new Christmas tree skirt. It's adorable Mary!
Patty from the blog Elm Street Quilts made this sweet pillow. She added some great Christmas themed embroidery. I love the aquas, light greens, and reds that she used here to make it such a fun, festive pillow. If it was mine I think I would just leave it out all year long! Patty was the recipient of the Minis and More prize last month. Congratulations Patty!
My Scrappy Patchwork Pillow top is made with the Modern Background fabrics lines called Ink and Paper by Zen Chic for Moda. I really wish I had more of these great fabric lines. I was tempted not to use them at all, but if I don't, it really doesn't help me by just sitting there, right? Once I decide if this will become a pillow or a mini it will have a place in my family room.
And as always, don't forget to see the other half of the Parade on Sherri's blog, A Quilting Life!
With everyone so busy with all kinds of holiday festivities, Sherri and I thought December would be a nice month to rest, enjoy the season, and gather fabrics and projects to prepare for the new year ahead!
So in the month of December, we won't be making a project.
Our next Parade will be on February first and we'll let you know what project or pattern we will be featuring in that Parade on our blogs at the beginning of January.
Are there any particular projects you'd like to see us feature in upcoming Minis and More Parades?
Leave a comment and let us know! We'd love to hear from you!
Be sure to check in at the start of the new year to see what we're working on next.
If you'd like to join us and participate in the Minis and More Parade with fun patterns and monthly prizes, we'd love to have you!
Simple make the next project, then email one of us with a picture of what you made and we'll put you in the Parade.
Leave any questions you might have about participating in the comment section and we'll get you more information.
Have a wonderful holiday season and we'll see you again soon!
