Not One Whit!

That’s what I named this month’s “Schnibble” quilt.

IMG_3624

It is one of Carrie’s “Little Bite” patterns which is made with the smaller 2 1/2” mini charms.

So, even though it is made of 128 flying geese units, it finishes up at a whopping 22’'” square.

I do like the design allot and as usual, Carrie’s directions are spot-on and easy to follow.

But, it just seems like such allot of work for such a tiny project.

I really do like the larger sized quilts from the regular Schnibbles patterns better.

My quilt was made with the Moda Avalon collection from Fig Tree Quilts, but the backing is from their newer collection “Honeysweet”.

So, what are you working on this fine fall week?

Guess what I’m working on?

Here’s a hint…

IMG_3577

I’ve been trimming…and trimming and trimming flying geese down to 1 1/2” by 2 1/2” in size.

IMG_3579

Yep, I’m working on a Little Bite called Whit.

IMG_3564

I’m making it out of two mini-charm packs from the Moda Avalon collection from Fig Tree.

IMG_3582

Yep, been trimming all 128 little flying geese.

IMG_3581

Really prefer to make regular Schnibbles with regular charm packs instead of Little Bites with mini-charms.

IMG_3587

It is just such allot of work for such a tiny outcome.  The version of Whit that I’m making will be just 22” square… sigh…

Yogi’s been hanging out in the sewing room with me, as usual… supervising… LOL!!

Small Quilties for November

I made some small tabletop quilties to use in November with my scarecrow and Thanksgiving decorations.

They’ve already been packed away with all my other November decorations,

as I buy my tree and begin to get my house ready for Christmas on the day after Thanksgiving every year.

My house is now all decorated and ready for Christmas!  But that “reveal” will be another post to come!!

Oh, and you might not recognize my Schnibble of the Month for November…

DSCN3354

which is not actually a “Schnibble” at all, but is a “Little Bite” named “Drop”!

DSCN3353

I did change it up a bit…  I added some small squares between the tiny blocks…

DSCN3355

and I love the way it turned out!!

I Love “Speck” a bushel and a peck!!

I finished this month’s Schnibble… actually a “Little Bite”…  Carrie’s new collection of patterns for Moda’s newest precut- the tiny 2 1/4” mini-charm packs.

DSCN2964

I made mine from Sandy Gervais’ “Monster Bash collection. 

DSCN2965

Super quick and easy little quilt to  make!!

DSCN2967

I‘ve needed a little table quilt for Halloween, so it is perfect!!

DSCN2971

And because I might want to use it on the reverse side sometime, I did not put on a label.

DSCN2974

And now I can’t wait to start on Hubble for the October Schnibble… but as my younger son is getting married in two weeks, it will have to wait until after October 6th!

DSCN3012

This week, I gotta get my dress for the wedding made…

Soooo, what are you working on this fine autumn weekend??
