Squirrel anyone? Mini Magic Stars

Do you ever visit a blog and just know.... you have to go make that NOW! The Joyful Quilter  put a post up that I saw around 5PM. This is what happened by 8PM in my sewing room..... ok -  I had to make dinner (taco Tuesday), clean up and did get my walk in... I also walked out with Em to close up the chickens for the night. But in between all that I opened a charm pack, paired fabrics, cut and sewed...... we won't mention I was hurrying when I cut that blue/green one and someone must have turned it wrong. Oops..... something for the back!


I have plenty more to select from to replace that one. This is the charm pack I pulled. Pretty purple, blue and greens.

I just pulled the same fabrics from the boo boo one to make another.

More matched with their pair fabric underneath and all set to cut out more Mini Magic Stars.


Go ahead... run to the sewing room and make some. I won't judge, I promise!

Thank you Joyful for the fun little diversion tonight. It was so fun to make these in a small size. Big thanks to your special math guys for figuring out the hard part =).

I love that you made these. I wanted to do the same thing but I had some masks that I had to work on 😉 ~Jeanne

I have some charm packages I need to use and make something simple with them - not sure what they are bright bold batiks

Love those! I saw that on Joyful Quilter, too, and knew right away I wanted to play with them. Hope to have time to do that today! Taco Tuesday sounds yummy, too!

Oooh they’re cuties. Don’t all quilters have squirrels of the project kind. My squirrel is sitting on the sewing table.

You didn't even wait a day? Thanks for giving my tutorial a try, Deb!!! Sorry about your cutting mishap. Fortunately, there's more fabric where those came from. :o))
