Designed by Mary Metcalf.

This is the first of mini quilts to celebrate various special events in New Zealand's history. 

First off is Waitangi Day on 6 February when we commemorate the signing of the Treaty between most of the Maori tribes of New Zealand and the British Crown on 6 February 1840.  If you are tripping around New Zealand, a visit to the Treaty House in Waitangi, Bay of Islands is a must.

Mini quilt size: 29cm x 34.5cm (11½" x 13½").

Also available as a Kitset which comes complete with instructions, fabric for the front, binding and backing.  All you need to add is the batting and a scrap of fusible web.  A very economical project.  Perhaps a beginning project for a new quilter??
I Love NZ mini quilt kitset $19.80.

Instructions are for the applique being completed using fusible web but you can of course use any type of applique method.
