A few years ago on Shop Hop, Kathy and I each thought we had to have a kit to make a tiny Arizona block pincushion so we bought them. So since they have been sitting around waiting patiently for us to get to them (and I didn't have time at Quilt Camp) I finally made them both tonight. They required the use of the tiniest Thangles I have ever seen. TINY! I like triangulations better so I pinned my papers on so I could at least sew several straight lines instead of doing each strip individually.
How tiny are those pieces? Not my best sewing, but I took my time and ironed and everything. Too tiny for me!
In the end they turned out okay!
I will gift one and keep one to share with Kathy. I won't be lining up to do anything that small again any time soon--unless it is paper pieced!
I got tons done sewing today which was fabulous, but I have less than 1000 steps on my fitbit! Sheesh! Hiking in the morning and I will be working out tomorrow during the Packer game too! Gonna shoot for 10,000 tomorrow! Lost two pounds this past week (after a gain the week before) so now I am at 67.8 total pounds lost. :)

These are so tiny and just awesome! They look patriotic to me! So, Arizona must be a really patriotic state? LOL
Tiny but cute. Great job on the weight loss.
We need to invent an activity monitor for our quilting days! LOL
