I write. I quilt. I cook. I take photographs. What else is there?

Thread Head Mini Quilt

Every day, I rush home from work and to my machine where I make what Joanne has posted for the next tiny block in her Mini Quilt Mystery.  I decided to keep my blocks mostly monochromatic, but different colors for each.  Some are high contrast, but some are low.  You’ve seen the flying geese I posted from the first day.

Such a happy little bunch. I made these from charm squares my mother sent me.  These little blocks are around 3 inches each and they make me smile.

Find what makes you smile.
