Mini hexagon flower quilt

 Years ago, before La Passion 1 and 2, I started this little hexagon quilt. The hexies are 1/4", so really small as you may see. I decided to keep on sewing as long as that green fabric came to an end. And that will be soon now. The red and blue fabrics are all scraps. I've used this project as a work to bring with me on travels. It just needed a small pouch. Here you can see a single flower, the size of the hexies, the almost finished top and the little pouch I bring with me wherever I go.

Background

 The theme from Art Journal Journey this month is to make our own background for a journal page. I'm just now making art journals for children, or quiet books if you like. And I'm making backgrounds with old fabrics and scraps. So it's also a recycling project. Here are some of my quilted backgrounds.

 After I've quilted them, they get an activity on top. Here you can see a space ship, an elephant with a secret behind his ear and a pair of shoes. Children love to look into these journals and find out what to do on all the pages.

Scrappy blocks

 Almost every week the last months I've made some small blocks for this project. It's a challenge from @reprequiltlover, the blocks are 2 1/2", and they will finish 2" in a quilt. But first i need many more of them. By now I have about 180, and I will need at least 250.

Norwegian Snowflake Quilt

 I've planned to finish this quilt for years. But now I'm the nearest I've been. The piecing is done, and all the blocks are together. Now it will need some white and blue borders. Hopefully I can do it and deliver it for longarm quilting before this year comes to an end.

 I've seen these rolls on Instagram and blogs from different quilters these last months. So I had to try it myself, and now I'm totally hooked. This i my first one, and it's a great way to use all those tiniest scraps. If you visit my Instagram you can watch a video of it all.

One hundred blocks

 Scrappy meets thrift is a challenge from @reproquiltlover. I've planned to make 250 blocks for this challenge. Today I could count the first hundred. The blocks are 2 1/2", and will finish as 2" in a quilt. They're really addictive to sew. I just managed to put all hundred in a pile and take a photo before it overturned.

 The challenge this month from Art Journal Journey is People. And I made these two friends having a nice time together, with inspiration from photoes on Pinterest. This is a page for my slow growing art journal.

Scrappy meets thrift

 Some weeks ago I started a challenge from @reproquiltlover to make small economy blocks. Every week I've made some new blocks, always using fabric from my scrap bin. This week I met some quilting friends, and even if  we talked a lot and had a great time, I managed to make some new blocks. There is also a picture of the 36 blocks I've made earlier for this project.

Micromini month

May is the month of miniquilts. And Lesley is the queen of minis and is hosting the challenge also this year. I can not resist the temptation of making some minis. These are for the first ten days of the month, two doll house cushions and a mini selvage quilt. Hope to make more during May. You can join in whenever you like this month.
