Mini tree quilt

This is a mini quilt that measures 9 x 12. I made it from leftover HSTs from my sister's quilt. She didn't want the scraps from her quilt so I kept them. I saw a tutorial on Missouri Star Quilt Co. for a very large tree quilt using a Layer Cake. I scaled it down and used what I had. I also made a little pinwheel for the star on the top. I quilted it with my domestic and walking foot.

This is the fabric from my sister's quilt. A modern color palette for Christmas.



I quilted it for her with my longarm.

Here's the back. The stitching shows up so great with this cuddle type of fabric. It's a light mint green. I really love how this turned out.

    Robin you're too funny! I wish it was mine too! But it's my sister's and she's older than me but a beginner so she deserves it. Ha.
