A couple of months ago I signed up for another mini quilt swap, this time for Heather Ross fabric… it was another opportunity to make a fun little quilt and I could not resist.
When I pulled out my Heather Ross stash I knew I wanted a quilt block that allowed me to do some serious fussy cutting…and after some umming and ahhing I decided on a simple triangle block.
These blocks are 2 1/2 inches square and are the perfect size to fit some of the darling illustrations on the fabric…
I made each block individually, so that I could play with layout and colour placement… and turn one block on its side….
But for the free pattern for this mini quilt, I included a two triangle block to make things a little quicker and easier, if you know you layout before you start. You can find the free pattern PDF here….Triangle mini quilt pattern
I was away when the Schnitzel and Boo Mini Quilt swap sign ups were on… but with 1008 people signed up to play there is going to be a lot of mini quilt activity over the next couple of months on Instagram, Flickr and blogs. I love it.
It makes you want to be a doll, so you can sleep under it! Beyond cute and well into squealing territory…
This is super cute!

Adorable! I love all the fussy cut triangles. I hope it’s OK … I shared your photo and a link here on BlockLotto.com We are making a larger version of these triangles (4 at a time) for this month’s block and I knew everyone would love to see your quilt.
Not a problem sharing the photo Sophie. Thanks for letting me know.
must try this ‘fussy cutting’ thing! and it seems a mini quilt would be a great place to start. thanks for the pattern!!
It looks gorgeous! I love all sorts of triangle happiness!
This is adorable. I’d still rather be shot than paper piece. :>)
I particularly love the one triangle that’s in another orientation.
very very cute
So cute! Love the wonky triangle too 🙂
You give me such good inspiration! Thanks so much formsharing.
I love the fussy cutting and the little sideways block!
A perfect use of the fabrics for a mini-swap. Mini-swaps sound intriguing! I’m going to keep my eyes out or maybe just get busy on one for me. 🙂
Love seeing what you come up with on paper pieced Monday. Love your minis and colours, keep it coming
Those fussy cuts are indeed darling.
thank you so much for sharing this adorable pattern!!! 💖💖💖💖
