If you love the desert and cacti, this free patchwork cactus mini quilt pattern is the perfect project for you! It makes a great gift – if you can part with it! To create this cute quilt, you’ll need assorted green fabric scraps, 1/8 yard of light blue fabric for the background, a scrap of light brown fabric for the ground, 1/8 yard of green stripe fabric for the binding, and fabric for the backing. You can use it as a hot pad, frame it as cute decor, or even make a quilt. The finished size isn’t specified, but you’ll need a 10″ x 12″ scrap for backing, so it’s likely to be about that size. It’s a fun little project, perfect for using up your green fabric scraps!
