My friend Jenn @A Quarter Inch from the Edge dipped her toes into the waters of the #miniminiquiltswap and I couldn't wait to swap with her!

Yesterday I shipped off two more #miniminiquiltswap mini mini quilts to head to their new homes. It is hard to believe that mini mini quilts number 19 and 20 are complete; I never would have guessed I would make so many of these back when Kitty @Night Quilter introduced them to me in September. These really are fun projects that...
