We had snow toward the end of January, and thank goodness it wasn’t too much, BUT I got a couple of snow/sew days! 
A friend of mine made the Smidge pattern, by Villa Rosa Designs, and I liked it.
So I drew a larger version, 60″ x 70″, to make it suitable for donation. I drew it in EQ8, and the program figured yardage for me. 
Luckily, I had the necessary fabric left over from a previous project. For starters, here’s the previous quilt:
There are many chandelier quilt patterns out there, but this one was free on the Free Spirit website
And here’s one more quilt that used that same fabric collection. I guess I really liked that fabric!
Finished top is about 61″ x 71″
And here’s my version of Smidge, now 60″ x 70″.
I changed the name of this quilt to Blips for my version
This is just a top. It will be passed on to my friend who quilts our tops for Flying Horse Farms and then delivers them for us! This was quick, easy, and fun. I recommend either the original pattern or drafting your own version.

I like it! And that you had enough fabric for three. I too overbuy. An extra yard, just in case when I know how much I need. And a lot when i have no plan, cause I want to be ready for anything.

Yes, when I love a fabric I buy 3 yards because then I have enough for almost any quilt I want to make. Then I have some leftovers, and after that there are scraps, so 3 yards of fabric go a long way. It’s one of the pleasures of quilting 😀
Hey Carolina Sister! Aha! A photo to accompany the email note! Speaking of which I sent you an email reply. Our snow is deeper – wink wink.
Haha. Another 8″ of snow today, so maybe I need to do another blog about it.
The snow always looks so peaceful, even though I know it must cause massive disruptions. Glad you got to sew though and love your interpretation
Thanks, Helen! Snow actually is peaceful because there’s almost no traffic noise. I’ll take it!
Of course you sewed — what else does one do when it snows?!
i like the smidge design and see why you liked that fabric so much
Thanks!
The snow is beautiful, and I noticed in the comments that you received another 8 inches???!! Wow — more sewing!
I love the Blips quilt; good on you for making it bigger as it can go more places. And fun to see all the quilts made from the same fabric–what a variety!
Yes! More snow, and you know what that means!
Nice way to spend a snowy day and the quilt images look great together on this post with the matching fabrics!
This was fun, quick, and easy! Maybe you need to make one, too…
