Teddy Bear Paw mini quilt

I made this mini quilt for my friend Anita for her birthday.  I found a pattern in a miniature quilt magazine from the 1990's but I knew I didn't want to sew 1 inch pieces cut diagonally (it gives me shudders to even think about sewing pieces that small lol).  So I created a paper pieced pattern for the bear paws and that worked out perfectly.  I love the Autumn colors and after the exceedingly hot summer we've had this year, I look forward to Fall.  Hmmm I think I'll make one for myself too!
