Madhuri, by The Quilted Fish

I'm so bad at keeping secrets, but I was able to keep this sweet Mini under wraps until after Quilt Market- go me!!!  A couple weeks before Quilt Market, sweet Amanda of The Quilted Fish sent the Creative Team some of her new Madhuri fabric to play with.  We all made "Modern Mini Quilts", which were hung in Amanda's booth at Quilt Market.


This is the front of my Madhuri Mini.  I love the fussy cut elephant and the traditional Churn Dash block.

 
I pieced the back and quilted (for the the very first time!!!) this Mini with straight line stitches.  I love the simplity of the quliting, however am still bummed that the pink eleephant seam is wonky - you live and learn!
 
If you like the looks of this Mini, make sure you come back on 5/29/13, as I will be posting a tutorial, so that you can make your own.
 
Oh, and did I mention that Amanda won a 2nd place ribbon at Quilt Market for her double booth?  Here are a couple of photos that I borrowed from Amanda's blog (surely she won't mind!).  :)
