This is how a few of them looked. I addressed them to different people I know in New Zealand, put a postage stamp on each one and then dropped them off into my local postbox. (I crossed my fingers that they would make it to their destinations!) I did wonder if they were large enough to make it back - but they all did! Thank you New Zealand Post! Here are a few photographs which show a little of how the quilt was made.
It was a really fun little quilt to make - really just a series of small experimental pieces that finally got joined together. Why not have a go at something similar? Try using up some fabric remnants to make some tiny weeny quilts, then stitch them together and see what turns out.
Thanks for looking!
