Mardi Gras Mini Quilt


Whether you celebrate Fat Tuesday or not, this Mardi Gras Mini Quilt can add some vibrant color to your home. You'll need some green, purple, and gold scraps like leftover jelly roll strips or charm packs with those colors. You'll be using small squares and half-square triangles to construct this mini quilt. This quilt project can be used as a wall hanging, a candle mat, or even a doll quilt. Add the beaded embellishment to make it more reminiscent of the beads worn during Mardi Gras.
