Hand Applique Little Quilt

Hand Work

This is one of my little quilts, hand applique from cheaters cloth, machine pieced and hand quilted.  Cheater cloth is fabric that all the design is there for you, I just cut it out and applique it down. Each of the little blocks are three inches by three inches and the whole quilt is eight inches by eight inches. I use it still today on my dresser. 
I think this kind of fabric is hard to find with small quilt designs and if I see it I purchase it.
