Mini Memory Quilt Part 1

You might remember that a few weeks ago I made a memory quilt for my doughter (you can take a look at it here: Memory Quilt Part 1, Memory Quilt Part 2, and Memory Quilt Part 3). I had some scraps from that project and decided to create a mini memory quilt that will be a blanket for a doll.

It is very similar to the "big" memory quilt, a set of random pink squares with a few crazy squares here and there. I just had to put those crazy squares in the desing.




Here are some of the scraps I was working with:

The squares of the original quilt were 10 cm by 10 cm (about 4 in x 4 in) but for this mini quilt I felt that I need something smaller so I went for 5 cm by 5 cm (~2 in by 2 in) squares.

After a couple of hours of sewing the quilt top is ready!

And some details of the quilt:

Now I just have to quilt it... Since it is not going to be a fluffy comforter, I will be able to use my basig sewing mashine to do some quilting. Will show you the result as soon as I can find some time to finish it.

Cheers,
Emese

  4. Love memory quilts. Cute way to work in the little scraps. I've made several memory quilts from Mother/Daddy's clothes over the last couple of years. Lots of memories for sure.
