quilted & bound & ready for the wall!
This one is a reminder that I really do like small and fiddly more than I like big and easy, but after putting together a hundred and twenty three pieces into a twelve by twelve inch square, I'm ready to go back to my 2 1/2" postage stamps for a couple of hours. Compared to the pieces in this little beauty, those are huge.
I'm glad Jo chose an easier block for March!

I never plan ahead, maybe this would fix that problem! This is so cute!! Thanks for the chance and adorable giveaway.
There were so many nice comments, I wish I'd had enough pumpkins for everyone who entered. Today is the last day to enter the Back to Charm School Giveaway, so you've still got a chance to win something fun.

I love Bear Paw blocks and have an occasional hankering for small and fiddly. I'm tempted to try this but maybe I'd make it a bit bigger.
ReplyDeleteI love to work small, too, but can see where it might have been a little overwhelming!! Great job on a great block!
ReplyDeleteLove the bear paws!!

Gosh that's a nice wall hanging, those pieces are so small...you must have tiny fingers!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great hanging. I do like little pieces too :) But big is good, I'm going to start on your 30's barn raising this weekend. Just a wonderful quilt :)
ReplyDeleteI have always liked quilts with bigger pieces but I really admire that. I couldn't do it. But I admire it! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Love it. Love your blog. I'm following you now. Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out Michelle. I love your Barn Raising with the solids. I'll have to make that too.
ReplyDeleteYour wall quilt looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThat is one amazing block!! 123 pieces?!?!?!?!? Whoop whoop for you!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of little pieces! Great block!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work! I love bear's paw quilt blocks. Yours has such variety, within the simplicity of the similar tones. This looks great, and it's a gorgeous finish!
