Skipper Mini Quilt

Way back in Feb­ru­ary 2016 I wrote a post talk­ing about how I was going to quilt through a book. The book I chose was Amber John­son’s book Vin­tage Vibe. I had thought I would be fur­ther along with the quilts but I def­in­itely haven’t giv­en up. My latest pro­ject is a mini quilt I made recently using Amber­’s Skip­per quilt pattern. 

Amber has been host­ing a sew along for the Skip­per quilt over on Ins­tagram. It would have been awe­some fun to join in and make a lar­ger quilt but I knew I did­n’t have time. My com­prom­ise was to make a mini quilt. 

My friend Amy Sin­i­baldi designs beau­ti­ful fab­ric. Her col­lec­tions are so del­ic­ate and pretty. Her Char­le­ston fab­ric range is gor­geous and I thought it would be great for my Skip­per mini quilt. I love how it looks with the navy accent pieces and binding.

I quilted this one with straight lines half an inch apart. It’s def­in­itely my go to meth­od of quilt­ing mini quilts. It’s simple and it always looks great. 

Would you like to see some of the oth­er pro­jects I’ve made from Amber­’s book? You can by click­ing here, here and here.

If you’d like to make your own Skip­per quilt you can pur­chase the pat­tern in Amber­’s shop by click­ing here.

Have a great week,
