This is a set of mini quilts that some friends and I made to decorate our church bathrooms:-) They were very simple to make using precut strips of fabric. We even used them generally in the same order that they were in the packages, we figured they always look nice there, so it should work on a quilt, right? We cut them to different widths, and some freehand curves on one of them. Then we just laid them down overlapping a bit on our batting and backing and raw-edge appliqued them with decorative stitches. This works best with a walking foot so they don't stretch and distort, but it's very quick and easy. The animals are just fused on. I think they are about 18 inches tall. A quick and fun project! I'll put a bigger picture of one in too.
