Fresh Mini Quilt Club: Round 2 | October 2013

FMQC Round 2: October

Hello! Today I'm excited to share October's Fresh Mini Quilt Club pattern, Sea Breeze. October's mini quilt features a nine block design & half square triangles -- something about the design just screams sea breeze! I'd really like to make another mini quilt using sea foam greens and fresh blues. What do you think?

FMQC Round 2: October

I straight line quilted this mini quilt using my BERNINA walking foot & Aurifil thread (50 wt., color 2024). The lines are 3/4" apart, making for some great quilted texture! Straight-line quilting really is my favorite! Check out my straight-line quilting blog post for more tips & information. 

FMQC Round 2: OctoberThe back fabric is this print from Ikea -- which reminds me, I need to pick some more of that fabric up! I used a small black and white strip for the binding from my stash. It's quickly became a binding favorite! The finished Sea Breeze mini quilt measures 22 1/2" x 22 1/2".

  1. Thank you, Megan! I really like how you've quilted this mini. I haven't done a lot of machine quilting so I appreciate seeing how you would do it. I'm going to give it a try! Can't wait to see November's quilt!
