Inchies

I made some inchies a while back. Each of the squares is 1" X 1". I layered 4 fabrics, then I cut them open diagonal to diagonal to blossom. I fussy cut 1" pansy fabric and stitched each of those squares behind the fabric layers so that the pansies showed through. Yesterday and today I added beads, and joined the squares together to make a necklace.
The piece will be a demo item at the Craft and Quilt Fair next week. There will be a table where the Art Quilt girls will be demoing techniques. If you get a chance, go along to the Fair, because it's also Queensland Quilters Inc's annual quilt show. Lots to see and do.
