Happy Birthday Michelle!


Last week was my best friend Michelle's birthday. Now, we don't usually buy eachother gifts, but I figured I would send her one anyway.
So here is the mini-quilt that I made for her. I was testing out some new techniques including free-motion quilting. I used OhFrasson's tutorial (from Sew Mama Sew) for the tiny patchwork.
Here's the back too. I backed it with a really soft bedsheet. The quilting started with just lines, and I added the stippling last. I wasn't completly happy with it pre-stippling. I'm getting a little more confident with free-motion quilting!
Here's the scarf. Made using the tutorial here.
I hope she liked them as much as I liked making them!
