I made this tiny top a couple of years ago and got stuck on how to quilt it. It’s a design by Sarah Bond who shrunk her original bed size version of this to this 24 inch wall hanging size.

As she said in the live virtual class I took, it takes just as long to make the mini, but I’m thrilled with the finish. I have a local long arm quilter who I trust to just take charge. I think she did a marvelous job!

It’s now hanging in my office at work, and gives me joy when I remember to look away from my computer screen.

I’ve finally learned how to block quilts, and think I’ll take the time to do so on this one later, but I think it’s good enough for now.

I love this, is so fun! And so precise. FPP is great, and I really enjoy how crisp and precise it can allow for us to be as quilters.

Me too! My favorite teacher says we should all choose to use the fastest technique that provides the results we want. I choose FPP often for that reason.
