quilt monday

Hello, hello! Feels way too long since we've done a quilt monday!

Today, something cute and easy just because. 
I had bought a mini charm pack of Horizon by Kate Spain. I was sorting out my fabric stash when I found the charm pack. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with it so I just started sewing them together in order as they came out of the charm pack.


I debated making it into a pillow but I had ended up tossing it on some fabric on my table and I liked how it looked so this is what it became.


It's still little, roughly 19x24 but oh so cute.

I had some fun with the quilting and did straight lines but different directions.


And I adore the navy binding.


And now I have something else to finish.
Happy Monday!!
