T for Temperance




Finished this little T for Temperance mini quilt today and will be linking to Kathleen Tracy's Flicker group.  Kathleen has a monthly small quilt challenge, everyone making a quilt from one of her four books or patterns.  This month it was free choice so I decided since I had purchased this fabric kit at Good Wives Co. in September, it was a good time to get it made.  How I wish I lived closer to that shop.

I love all of Kathleen's books, although I am missing Prairie Children and their Quilts, have to do something about that soon.  This particular quilt is in her Civil War Sewing Circle, a favorite among mini quilt quilters.  If you are interested in small quilts and making one small quilt a month, check her blog A Sentimental Quilter here for details.

Enjoy all the pieces of your life.

Nice finish on the "T" quilt mini.
The Good Wives Co wished you lived closer also...I was so nice meeting you this past summer.
I also am missing that same book from my collection and put it on my list to find this year.

Happy Stitching

Oh I love the mini T!!! I'm partial to blue fabrics. If we get to pick a quilt of our choice again, I think, after seeing yours, this will be it for me!

What a beautiful mini Betty Lou. I really like the soft colors.

I love the fabrics you used! Very nice. I've never made that block. I just may join Kathleen's group this year as I have 2 of her books.

Hey ... I have one just like that! I smiled as soon as I saw the picture that you posted - because I knew EXACTLY where you got yours. :) I hand quilted mine with big stitch style quilting in blue and cream perle cottons. Still need to add the binding and then mine will be ready to hang.

Amy said...

I meant to say that I still need to add the hanging sleeve on the back so that I can hang it up somewhere in the house. The binding has been done for awhile. I think I've been dragging my feet because I'm not 100% sure where it will be displayed yet.

I love the block - I love small quilts. I don't have any of her books yet but have been following her blog for the past year.

Very nice! I've been thinking of doing some small quilts. I make too many quilt plans that don't happen too fast!

It is a very nice block and turned out very well.
