I sure do! The smaller the better!

So fun (and a fabulous way to be able to display more quilts).
I was super excited about the Small, Smaller, Smallest blog hop hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt - and it's been fun seeing all the posts so far.
For my project, I decided to finish this mini that I actually started a year ago. Thimble included for scale!
I made this quilt using fabrics supplied to me by Island Batik. The blocks are by Hope's Quilt Designs. I quilted my mini with Aurifil thread (provided by Aurifil Thread!) - I tried using 80 wt in the blocks and it was so wonderful! You get the impression of texture without seeing the thread so much. Now I just have to find a spot for my mini on my wall!
Here is the list of participants in the hop again, make sure you read them all!

Oh, I have a couple of Miniature Quilts magazines to give away as well!
If you notice in my first picture, I made the blue and white one in the center for my wall above my sewing machine. Leave me a comment and on Friday evening I'll draw one winner for both magazines.
Thanks for reading

Lovely to find you Pamela on this great blog hop. Love the all little quilts on your walls. I'm trying hard to do the same in my sewing room. I'm a new follower via email. laura84watt(at)gmail(dot)com
Such a fun visit to your blog today to see so many mini quilts...wow! You really know how to go small, don't you. The Island Batik block is so adorable and beautiful...love it! Thanks for hopping along with us and sharing your sweet, sweet small projects. :O)
Soooo sweet! A lovely mini sampler!
I collect Miniature Quilts magazines, so I hope I win the draw and will pay for the postage!!!
Such sweet blocks, great project!
Pamela, what fun it must be to walk into your sewing room and look at all of your minis! I'm sure each one takes you back to the time when you made it. You are a master, for sure, with those tiny blocks!
you have so many cute minis!
I love all of your little quilts, they are so cute hung all over your walls!
I subscribed to that magazine many years ago. Had to give them up when we moved. Love your mini!!
All your minis are lovely. The project that shows a light house...is that an original or can you remember the name of the pattern?
Very pretty! I love the wave quilting in the border. I have a couple of those small quilt magazines. Also, all the Small Quilt books by Kathleen Tracy. I want to make every one of
those small quilts if I live long enough.
Beautiful mini quilts. I love the quilting on your latest too.
Love your sewing room, so many fantastic projects 💕
That is beautiful and very small. Like you, I have so many little mini quilts hanging in my sewing space and love looking at them.
Thank you for the quilt show of your wonderful minis. 24Tangent@gmail.com
Thanks so much for the info about the Blog Hop - I love miniature quilts. Have one in progress as well, I should finish it. :)
How wonderful to have such a great variety of fabulous minis adorning your sewing room walls.
Your minis are truly lovely. I have several in my sewing room also, but you’ve inspired me to get busy and make another.
Whoa. Looks like you have several bits of mini heaven in your home. I admire those who work so small. Thanks for including the thimble in your last project. Hard to believe it's that tiny. Wonderful.
Gorgeous!!! What can I say but tiny and gorgeous! I love mini's too, but haven't done that many...I need to pull out some of my patterns and start stitching! Thanks for the inspiration.
Great things come in small packages...mini quilts rock,
OMG...those are wonderful! You are so talented! I can't get over the walls with your many mini quilts. That's such a warm decoration and gallery all at the same time! I have always admired those tiny quilts. I have just one to put on the wall when it's completed, but seeing yours, I now need to add more!! Those magazines must be endless inspiration!
What a wonderful collection. I haven't made that many yet. I do have some to finish, though. Nice idea about the 80wt thread.
Look at all those mini quilts! Fun. And your latest is amazing!
Wonderful quilt!
I have never made a mini quilt, but your beautiful examples have me itching to try my hand! I could even hand quilt them or use my sewing machine, since my longarm isn't with me at the moment!! I have really missed not having a quilt finish in the past 2 years!
So tiny, so sweet. Thank you.
Beautiful collection of wee quilts. Your workmanship is lovely.
Oh, Pamela. I absolutely love your little mini quilt. It is so cute!
Love your newest mini as well as your collection! They are fun to make. I haven’t seen this magazine before so my fingers are crossed, hehe.
Oh, my, Pamela, I love seeing all your teeny mini quilts! They make your sewing room so cozy and cute. And wow, that last mini is wonderful! Good to know about the 80wt thread!
I love these minature quilts. Quite amazing to me.
Lovely to meet you on the blog hop. I am rather fond of a mini quilt, partly because it is so satisfying to finish a quilt so quickly. x
Your miniature quilts are beautiful! I have not made one yet, I am anxious to give it a try. I have never seen those magazines before.
My goodness those are tiny little quilt blocks. Too cute Pamela!
Gorgeous little project. I have never made a mini but your beautiful display of them may make me try. Thanks for sharing.
How cute and lovely colors. Nice job on quilting something so small.
Nice arrangement of small quilts - I can tell you love tiny work!
These minis are adorable. I love how you made the blue and white one on your wall!
Gosh, it was fun to see all your minis and your newest finish is wonderful. Its obvious you love doing minis, I wish I felt comfortable doing them that small, I have a hard enough time with a 1/4-inch seam, so am not sure I could go smaller with the 1/8th most use for minis.
Your mini is beautiful!
I love miniature quilts! They are fun to make, challenging but not overwhelming, and their size makes it possible for me to start and actually complete projects. Unlike the unfinished bigger quilts I have lingering all around my sewing room (and other rooms), my minis get finished and displayed or given away.
Wow that is awesome. Mini quilts I think are much more unforgiving when you make a cutting error. Bigger blocks I have some cheat room. I am always so in awe of people who make minis.
I love the texture the quilting gave to your beautiful mini. I am anxious to try myself now. Thanks.
