Postage Stamp Quilt

I have been seeing these darling postage stamp quilts all ove blogland and I really wanted to try one but they seemed so intimidating.  Well, when Deanna over at Wedding Dress Blue did a tutorial on the postage stamp quilts, I decided I would give one a try.  So, I decided that I would make a doll quilt size for my partner in the Doll quilt Swap that I am a member of.  Here is what I came up with ~
Now this quilt is small - 19" x 15" and the little postage stamps are 1-1/2" finished. I loved making this little quilt - it was fun and quite easy and so now I am not afraid of trying a larger one - SOMEDAY!!!

  1. I love making small quilts, but would like to try some with smaller pieces, can't hurt to try. Your piece came out beautifully.

  4. Ooooooooooo! I have always loved those! A friend of mine made a kings sized one! None of the pieces were the same. She collected all those little pieces for years. It was crazy awesome!
