Keep Calm & Sew On

Does this one count as a mini quilt?  I'm totally going to count it as a mini quilt even if it is more of a micro quilt than anything.  I needed a quick little finish and I had this scrap of fabric that was just begging for me to fussy cut the "Keep Calm & Sew On" quote and make something from it. 
So I did. And it was fun. And it only took about an hour from start to finish. Because it's really small - like 8.5 inches wide by 7 inches tall kind of small. But I love it. And it's a nice little mantra to be reminded of when the crazy of being a stay at home mom of two little boy (ages 2 and 4) seems somewhat overwhelming, and when life and circumstances and emotions and feelings become intense.  To be reminded to just stop, to breathe, to pray and leave everything in God's hands, and to just focus on making something beautiful. 

Keep Calm and Sew (or make or create) on my dear friends.
