Luck of the Irish

I have been feeling green this weekend, which is fitting seeing as it is St. Patrick's Day and all! I have been working on my Emerald Challenge for the Sew-vivor contest, and also put the finishing touches on my min/pillow cover for the Pantone Emerald Challenge over at a.squared.w.....JUST in time for the deadline in a few hours!


I decided to do a mini quilt, measuring 14.5" square, with a zippered back to allow for use as a pillow cover as well. Feels nice and spring-like, which I can definitely use right now considering the unseasonably cold weather we are having around here!


Just raw-edge appliqued a bunch of my scraps onto some linen, then did a bunch of pebble quilting in the open spaces.


A concealed sipper closure (using Svetlana's tutorial), some green binding with a splash of pink, and it is all done!

Happy St. Patty's Day!  Back with my other Emerald project on Wednesday :)
