Floral Mini Quilt Tutorial - Part 1

Want a project you can finish in a weekend? This Floral Mini Quilt is perfect for a wall hanging or a doll quilt. In Part 1, I’m showing you how to piece the top and sharing my favorite "sanity-saving" shortcuts.

The Highlights

  • Quick HSTs: My simple draw-sew-cut method for perfect half-square triangles every time.

  • Skip the Square-Up: I don't square up my blocks! I’ll show you how to "pinch and pull" your seams into place so your quilt doesn't keep getting smaller.

  • Appliqué That Lasts: Why I always zigzag my stems twice to survive the wash.

  • Row Assembly: How to line up your seams for a beautiful flower bouquet finish.

Piecing should be fun, not stressful. If your points aren’t perfect, you’re still a real quilter in my book!
