I guess this will end up being whatever the person getting it wants it to be. I believe it could be used for any one of the choices, or all 3 depending on the whim.
It ended up being 16 X 21 1/2 inches which would qualify it as a mini quilt. I believe it will be very close to the right size for a doll cradle where it's going, and I could easily see it on a buffet or table.
This is the print that I used on the back. Again, it could be used for all the uses I've already mentioned.
I can see all the girls in our family in this print. My mom loves cardinals, one sis is a bird lover, another has snowman dishes, and I just love the trees. hmmm wish I had more of this fabric now!
This view shows the twister pinwheels a bit better - and the machine quilting I did on them.
I'm tickled with the way it turned out.
This is just where I'm logging my progress in my quilting projects. While I just started quilting in late 2007, I've been completely bitten by the bug and love learning new techniques, seeing new projects, and have seemed to have gotten really fond of acquiring stash!!

Jewel Box mini quilt
I've been interested in the Jewel Box quilt block, and before I got rid of the scraps I was simply tired of seeing around, I thought I'd just try another mini.
This is what I ended up with.
It's finished at 10 X 14 inches.
While not anywhere near perfect, it was a fun process to try, and I might even be interested enough to make a larger one some day.

Mini quilt updated
oh yeah....I like this much better. I took the batik off the border, added a tiny word border, then a floral.
It's bound with commercial binding and finishes out at 9 X 11 1/2 inches.
This is the second mini I've completed with the tiny bonus triangles from the Morning Star Quilt I've been working on.
Note: This found a new home with my sister who lives in Manhattan, KS who stopped in for a visit and admired it. I know she will find a special place for it in her new home and that it will be well loved.

Mini pinwheels
Here is another mini I'm working on. It should finish out about 9.5 X 12.
After posting this and seeing the picture I'm going to take that outer border off and replace it with something else. Not sure what, but I don't like what I'm seeing in this picture. While the colors aren't true, I don't care for the batik for that border. Stay tuned - we'll see what I can come up with.
