I've even started working on several of the mini's I am making for swaps due this month and next.
This paper pieced block is called "Esme Restyled" and was found in issue 16 of Love Patchwork and Quilting magazine. I made it for my partner in the Tula Pink Mini Swap, where we had to use Tula Pink fabrics. I made this one with the green colorway of Saltwater, and I hope my partner likes it. I considered fussy cutting the fabric so that each triangle would be the same, but I didn't quite have enough. In the end, I like how the octopus seems to be peeking out of some of the triangles.
I will be working on the quilting later today, and I am hoping to keep it simple. But, you guys know me, I will probably start simple and before I know it every millimeter will be quilted. Only time will tell!
