Paper Hearts Made Mini - 2014 Pantone Quilt Challenge

Here is my entry for the 2014 Pantone Quilt Challenge - Radiant Orchid.  I have been in a mini mode lately and was inspired by Tula Pink's Paper Hearts' quilt from the book Sew Red (and with permission from Tula Pink) to make this mini version which measures 12.5" x 16.25".  


I used a different fabric for each of the hearts, one of the three hand dyes on the back (that I had previously purchased from a local quilter), and Cultivate by Elissa Barbieri for Clothworks as the binding to pull it all together. 


I kept my quilting very simple as it was all that was needed.


I really can't wait to add this to my wall of mini quilts.


Happy Quilting!
