This mini quilt was created for the Curated Quilts “curves” mini challenge in December, 2019. This mini quilt was also full of firsts for me. It is named Never Have I Ever because prior to this challenge, I had never made a mini quilt or sewn with curves! A two-for-one on trying new skills.
The colors for this challenge were white, spring green, moss green, burgundy, fuchsia, and teal. I didn’t like this combination so I pared it down by removing the greens. It’s hard to see but the quilting thread is teal. It was not accepted for the issue.
One big mistake I made was accidentally using Kona PFD instead of White. I only discovered this when I was finished and trying to erase my water soluble marker lines. I put the water on the marker and it simply kept migrating around the quilt top! After messing around with this for about 30 minutes, I finally checked my fabric store receipt and discovered my goof.
