Fun Mini Quilt Challange


I hardly ever enter quilt contests or block swaps, but I saw a fun contest on Instagram last week and I decided to do it! It is sponsored by Michael Miller Fabrics and The Electric Quilt Company. The first prizes? 80 assorted fat quarters of Cotton Couture, a copy of Electric Quilt 7 and a feature on Making It Fun! The 80 fat quarters sounds heavenly, but I always wanted quilt design software, I had to try it and see what I can come up with!

One of the contest rules was to use Michael Miller fabrics only. I thought that would limit my design choices, but it actually helped me to focus and decide on the design quicker. I didn't have much time to work with, so I had to be quick. Here is what I come up with...

I am crossing my fingers and hoping to see if I can win the 1st place prizes (if not 2nd or 3rd?). Making this mini quilt sparked many design ideas, I need to start drawing them before I forget. Wish me luck! :)
