As usual, in December, the photo quality is much diminished. Today, I want to introduce you to Blue Ornaments, my mini quilt of the month for the month of December.
This little quilt provided a little distraction from the Quote Quilt until I realized I am going to add fusible to the backing, and not the front of the quilt. This means, I can keep adding more stuff to the Quote Quilt while I prepare the backing and fusible. I'll show you my additions to the Quote Quilt in another post.
In the meantime, this little quilt is a wholecloth quilt made with three circles from a fabric I recently got from Joanns. I think it is pretty enough to stand on its own as ornaments. I quilted the sandwich lightly, added the ornaments with a decorative stitch, and then quilted it a bit more with a Decobob thread I got as a sample.
The backing is the same fabric as the binding. I took photos of it outside in the snow, but they were all upside down. I didn't want to confuse you more than needed in a topsy turvy year, so this photo will have to do until I can get a better photoshoot. By that time, I might have added some bows to the strings.

Sweet, thanks for sharing.
Love it! You know, the color for 2021 is that blue ...
It's a very sweet and spare mini - so pretty.
I've been seeing a lot of thing on the web with that style of ornament. You're a trend setter!
lol I don't think upside down photos would have fazed me at all - the new norm. Cute mini. Love the decorative stitches. Some day I will be brave enough to play with decorative threads.
Absolutely sensational! And posted early to boot! I just love this little mini! Thanks for another great year of mini making!
The simplicity of this little piece is so calming. Something that we all need. I like it a lot.
Gosh, that turned out really cute!
That quilt is so cute. How big is it.
Merry Christmas! A great way to show off pretty fabric!
