Colour it Red Blog Hop

Today is the nominated day for me to show what I have been working on.    For sometime now I have been thinking that I would add a few more mini quilts to my collection, with it being February when Valentine's Day is celebrated and the theme "Colour it Red" it was the perfect chance to combine all three ideas into one.

Here is my first mini quilt


While the  fabrics were out I decided to make the flip side which as you can see will represent St Patricks Day for March.  


Now I just need to make two more that will be sewn onto the back of them, turned inside out and ladder stitched closed at the bottom.   I have yet to decide on what they will represent.  

Thanks Carol for organising such a fun blog hop and you can see more lovely red projects at the blogs listed below.

Cute mini quilts & great idea for reverse, plus "future showings"! I have done that several times with table toppers, making them really useful. Thanks for sharing.
