Intrepid Thread Challenge Reveal!

A while back, Julie from Intrepid Thread    invited people to participate in a challenge using these fabrics:

You could make anything you wanted as long as you posted pictures on Instagram. I cut my fabrics up into 2 1/2 inch squares to go with the mini charm pack. I tried out several different ideas on the design wall.

I ended up going with this one:

I added borders and quilted it in an allover swirl.
