brrr! mini quilt

Thanks to Laurie Wisbrun and the kind folks at Robert Kaufman, I’ve had a chance to play around with Laurie’s upcoming new line, Brrr!, which will be available in June. It’s a great mix of prints in two colorways, each featuring these wonderfully adorable polar bears.

I started making up these blocks for a larger quilt, but ended up changing my mind on the background color, so I turned these blocks into this cute mini quilt instead.

I’m particularly happy with the quilting on this one – circles! Inspired of course by all the circles surrounding those cute polar bears.

I have this one hanging above my ironing board currently, and it’s been fun to have a little wintery mini quilt to admire while I iron!
