December has been a busy month already! But after I started sewing , "just one row" , in this adorable Nordic Mini Quilt Along, at The Crafty Quilter , I "made time" to finish the other three rows! ( This mini quilt is definitely "squeeze it in" worthy!!"
 |
| Row 1 The Nordic Star |
These little star blocks are about four inches finished , with 25 pieces in each block.
Before I knew it, I had my other three rows made! The other rows are faster to sew up.
I love the woven texture look that the Norwegian Heart blocks have!
I decided to bring the gray color into my quilt. (The Patchsmith added touches of gray to her Nordic Mini Quilt. I am just a big old "copy cat.")

I really enjoyed making this Nordic Mini Quilt! I think I will be making another one in January, as my daughter has put in a request. Julie has also included the sizes and directions for making these blocks in 12 inch sizes, too! {Click here for the tutorial}

I think your Nodic mini is beautiful and I love the grey contrasting rows. Very, very nice.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the gray touches really add interest - wonderful idea! You've made me proud, with your pretty machine binding. The solid red looks wonderful. Also, I am In.Love. with that little white Christmas tree adorned with red balls...gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteThis mini is so pretty! If you're taling orders for next year...!!!
ReplyDeleteOnly now I realized how small the blocks are. very beautiful. assorted with the white three and red ornaments. I use those clips for bags too, they are very useful.
ReplyDeleteMy oh my - 4 inch blocks! They are so small to have so many pieces Susie. This quilt is so pretty and so Christmassy! I love the grey you added. You just happened to have the perfect little mini tree too eh? They make a lovely scene.
ReplyDeleteGod jul og godt nytt år! to you and your family too!
I love it !!! Wow that is some small stitching!!
ReplyDeleteSuch tiny blocks with so many pieces!! At least there is just one row of snowflakes but a whole quilt would be pretty too! I love a red and white quilt but I really like the addition of the gray. So sweet that your daughter has put in her request; does she want the same colors or different ones. I think one day she will pick up the sewing bug :)
ReplyDeleteYour Nordic Mini is darling! You've inspired me to finish mine up and I've just finished up my hearts and am looking at everyone's to get ideas how to arrange the rows. I love your gray accent (that reminds me, I thought Julie was going to use some gray?) And the photo with the white tree is very attractive!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Susie!! I love the grey rows! That is so wonderful that your daughter wants one too. Best compliment ever :)

I LOVE your Nordic Mini, Susie! It looks perfect next to the white tree. Thanks for sharing the links, too. God Jul!

Well done Susie, it looks great! Love the pop with the gray next to the white tree and Bravo for the machine binding! You can't go wrong with red and white either!
