Alaska Shop Hop

Here a 4 Shop Hop mini quilt kits that I purchased while visiting touring Alaska several years ago. Each finished at 14" square. I am trying to decide on whether I should bind each one individually ... Display as a wall art grouping. Alternately, I could make one large quilt by piecing them together. Decisions, decisions ...

Very nice! I bought several kits in Alaska a few years ago but have been too intimidated by the appliqué to actually start them. Perhaps this year.

They are beautiful! Personally, I would like to see them as separate wall hangings in a grouping on a wall (collage).

These are adorable and your applique work is beautiful. I'd probably go the quilt route but either way will be cute...

Thanks. I have been pondering the idea of incorporating all 4 of these mini quilts into one vertical "skinny quilt. Just need to decide on a coordinating fabric to bring them all together. I will probably stick with something from the Stonehenge line of fabrics, since that what is what was used in all of the borders. Gotta love Stonehenge fabrics for landscape quilts!
