(Micro Mini sew along from May 1-31, 2022)

What is the Micro Mini Sew Along? During the month of May on my Instagram and Facebook page, you can join in the fun of “sewing small”! Dig out your tiny scraps, reduce patterns, or simply go for it and stitch up a quilted project that measures 8” or less. There will be challenges throughout the month including, “smallest quilt”, “treasures from the trash” (sewing a project with only fabrics from your trash bin). Will there be prizes? Oh yes! There will be 15 sponsors this year and some amazing prizes including fabric packs, patterns, quilting tools, needle minders, and more.

How can you participate? All you need to do is create your own Micro Mini Quilt and post it during the month of May using the hashtag #microminisal on Instagram or Facebook, sponsors will then choose their favourites as winners. I must warn you, once you start sewing small, it can be very addicting, and you will begin to look at your scraps in a whole new way :). Need some inspiration? This will be the forth year of the sew along and there is plenty of teeny tiny quilts posted on the #microminisal page on Instagram for you to admire. You can also find how-to videos showing tips and tricks for sewing your little makes such as, tiny binding, making a 1 1/4” nine patch, and plenty of improv ideas.

Even if you decide you would just like to follow along in the fun, that would be great too! We love comments, feedback and sharing. See you in May!

Micro Mini Log Cabin Heart Pattern

Love is definitely a funny thing. The dictionary describes it as an intense feeling of deep affection. Wikipedia explains love as ‘encompasses a range of strong and positive emotional and mental states.’ However we try to explain it or understand it, love is very exciting, complicated and even painful. I have spent a good portion of my life dedicated to those I love, by comitting my time, energy, and efforts while creating lasting and meaninful relationships. I have collected these lasting memories that are being stored on the shelves of my life. James M. Barrie said it perfectly; “God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December.” I still remember my first love...Ah! The sweetness of young love! We were in Grade 1, and on Valentine’s Day he presented me with the most wonderful handmade gift, a stuffed heart. It was made of flannel and had white lace around the outer edges. It looked like it was something he made, with hot glue holding it together, although I am sure he must

Mini Dresden Plate Pincushion

With a few small little leftover pieces and this adorable vintage milk white bowl, I made this super easy pincushion for my sewing room! These instructions are so easy to follow and you will find it come together very quickly! Please note: this pincushion will fit into a 5"- 6" container. Cut 13 pieces from your favourite scraps that measure 1 1/2"X 3". Fold them over lengthwise and sew a 1/4" seam across the top. Turn the point right side out and press as shown. Sew the pieces together along the sides using a 1/4" seam. Sew them all in a row. This is the back of the pieces sewn together. Lay on your cutting table and trim them to 2 1/4" from the point. Sew them together to form a complete circle. Using your finger, fold all the seams in the same direction making the fabrics overlap slightly to form the flower shape. You will need to gently move the pieces so that they all end up folding the same amount. Press well. Cu
