Chinese Coins is the current popular quilt being made at my guild. I wanted to make one for the community quilt drive, but there are several Christmas quilts on the list in front of it. What to do? Make a mini!
I have a bin of 1 1/4" strips already cut, so that made it easy.
I wasn't sure how many to stack, so I just kept sewing.
Hmmm... looks a little long for a quilt and a little short for a table runner.
So I took the bottom border off, trimmed off several 'coins' and sewed the bottom border back on. Much better.

What a sweetie your Chinese coins turned out to be! I liked following along with you on the process of how it evolved. The red mottled border gives lots of eye movement as do the light yellows as well. Please consider getting rid of the dreadful word verification feature from the settings section of posts. It makes it so miserable to try to comment. Thanks so very much!
