DS mini quilt

DS DQS button by kirsten67, on Flickr

I have finished the first of the two DS Picnic and Fairgrounds mini/doll quilts that I am making for the DSDQ swap. I have quite a number of things coming up in the next few weeks (a weekend away to celebrate my parents 70th birthdays, a work conference for which I am part of the organising committee, Brisbane craft and quilt fair) so I don’t want to be still sewing when we are due to send!
I did a warm/cool design to make use the different colours of the DS fabrics:
 And chose a plain dark blue for the back so the variegated coloured threads I used would show up:
Linking up to Mini Quilt Mondays (on a Friday again!) with Faith at Fresh Lemons.

And to {Sew} Modern Monday at Canoe Ridge Creations and to Fabric Tuesday at Quiltstory (links in sidebar).
