I felt the urge to work on something quick and fun last night, so I started this little mini quilt. Jessica was working with these gorgeous Pat Bravo Pure Elements solids this past weekend. She happened to throw out quite a few scraps (you know, those ones that most normal people throw out, but I save!). I dug through them and found 5 small rectangles of each of the colors she used. In her defense I think the biggest scrap was 1.25" by 3.5"? Some were as small as .75"x3.25". I have a problem with scraps!
Hopefully this isn't totally weird, haha! I simply love these fabrics, but shouldn't really be buying them right now. This was a way for me to satisfy my hunger!
I finished it off with Heath by Alexander Henry, a new favorite, and this dark gray JoAnns print, an old favorite. I was finally able to play around with fun organic quilting lines and I have to say, despite how time consuming it is, I love the result!
This little mini quilt is destined for my side table!

Great composition, of course. But the quilting and the binding are so great together, I'm jealous. :)
