A tiny Lilliputian top.

This project was inspired by our blogging pal Carolyn of the famous Knot Garden blog.
 There are 83 fabrics and 49 blocks.  The process is as follows . . .
Starch your fabric well, cut 3-1/2" strips, then 3-1/2" squares.
Sew a 1/4" seam on each side of a light and dark block unit.
 Cut diagonally from corner to corner.
Trim each unit to 1-3/4".   The Bloc-Loc tiny triangle trim ruler helps a lot.

It takes a wide variety of small prints, but throw in some larger prints too.  The background prints are in the very light range for good contrast.

Until then, keep stitchin' . . .
