Mini Quilt Tutorial by Threaded Mess

The Fat Quarterly has graciously allowed me to post on their blog today because I've got a simple but fun mini quilt tutorial to share with you AND! one lucky winner not only gets to name this quilt but gets to choose one of the demonstration quilts I made to keep! Exciting right?!

Remember this little pretty?

I've created a detail filled tutorial with information on the supplies you'll need, selecting fabric, laying out your quilt, cutting and piecing your quilt top, quilting, and binding.

If you're not already thinking about it, I'll remind you now that this is not only a tutorial but it's also a giveaway! When it came time to name this quilt my mind drew a blank so I'm leaving it up to you! The person who comes up with the most creative name (my choice) for this quilt will get to pick between the girly version or the boyish version to keep for themselves. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post or the Fat Quarterly blog post I wrote for this tutorial with your idea for a name. A winner will be selected May 6th and announced right here on my blog. I can't wait to hear your ideas!

I would like to give a big thanks to the people of the Fat Quarterly for allowing me to share my creation with their readers. Check out their Issues for sale and other free tutorials on their website.

Show your support for this tutorial by leaving a comment here or on my Fat Quarterly blog post (hopefully with something sweet to say and an idea for a name too), becoming a follower of Threaded Mess, and sharing your creations based on this tutorial on flickr in the Threaded Mess Tutorials group page.

Happy Quilting!
