little miss dandy day ~ a mini quilt!


I finally finished little Miss Dandy! I decided to do a mini quilt as then she could be hung so everyone could see her taking flight! I went really simple with the quilting, which was a hard decision for me since I really love to stipple. I was too worried that the stippling would take away from her. I really do like the simplicity of just stitching in the ditch so am glad I went that route. She is now flying to her new home.


I also made a cute little tea towel for my partner as a little extra. I had made a couple a while back and had an extra one laying around so stitched some cute little hexies on it like I had did before. :)



Hope everyone is having a whimsical Wednesday!!

  15. What a lovely little quilt. I agree, the simplicity makes it! I sometimes feel there is too much quilting and stippling of quilts - they turn from being quilts to carpets!
