Modern Mini Challenge
I loved all the inspiration for this challenge. I hadn't really planned to enter...but I kept seeing more and more inspiration quilts and then, the bug bit me. Still, I hedged a bit. I started one and told myself, if it doesn't turn out good, I won't enter it. But I started and I changed it a bit from my original thought and when it was done...I LOVED IT!
I always wanted a rainbow quilt and this mini was perfect in size for me.
I made my strips of white-color-white and slashed them. Then, I thought they needed more slashing.
Then I fiddled with putting them back together until I was satisfied.
Then I quilted in the ditch around the colors. I was a bit stumped about the white area, but then it came to me...small stones...lots of them. It took 3 sessions after work to complete.
So here is my rainbow modern mini challenge quilt. It makes me happy just looking at it and now I want to make more minis.

What a great idea! And perfect to chase away mid-winter blues (I'm in Ohio). Lovely quilting. Glad you decided to enter the challenge!
It's lovely! I adore rainbow stuffs!
Perfect way to do a rainbow quilt. I am thinking I need to make one of these for my table.
I love it! I've never made anything rainbow but this is very inspiring!
Oh I love it Charlotte! It is such a happy fun quilt and I am so glad you've caught the mini bug! I think minis are like chips- you can't make just one! Thanks for linking up to the modern mini challenge! Good luck!
