Mini Quilt Swap Details

Mini Quilts will be due at the May 21st Meeting (note: May's meeting & May's sewing night are both being held at the same time)

Mini Quilts must be based on some aspect of one of the inspiration pictures (you will be able to show us, which part inspired you at the meeting). You can choose anything from colors to shapes to patterns to help inspire your mini quilt.

Your mini quilts cannot be smaller than 12" x 12" or larger than 24" x 24" (finished sizes). The swap will be random and based on the mini quilts that are brought to the meeting.

Here are your inspiration choices:
