Monthly Mini Quilt for August

Summer Beach Huts (9" wide x 10" tall) Quilted with "heat" wave lines

For our August Monthly Mini Quilt, it's summer so I was thinking a summer quilt.  Not to mention the fact that it was 30+c at the time I was making this quilt and we were having a heat wave ! I  had the air conditioning blasting while working in my studio.  

The blocks in the above quilt number 20 in total, the quilt measures  approximately 9" wide x 10" tall and each block measures a mere 1.75" wide x 2" tall. They are tiny!

What I used to make the flying geese roofs, easy and accurate? Eleanor Burns' Quilt in a Day Flying Geese Ruler

I used the 3/4" x 1.5" finished flying geese portion of the ruler above

I designed this quilt in EQ8 because with each block being so small, I did not want to rely on my own math for accuracy.  The key to working with minis is accurate cutting and accurate sewing.
