Doll Quilt Swap - May


Doll Quilt Swap - May
Optional Theme - May Flowers

Here is the little quilt that I made for Vickie in the US
It arrived in her mailbox today so I can share :o)



I have used a cushion pattern from the book Some Kind of Wonderful by Anni Downs.
The same book that the SKOW Quilt along is using to make the 
"My Favourite Things Quilt"



My Quilt from Vickie also arrived to me today. Let me share.


Not only has she made this beautiful 12" Mini but she also sent me the stand to display it on.
It is now displayed proudly in my Entrance Hall


Thank you so much Vickie, it is beautiful.


If you are interested in joining this swap just click on the button 
on the left had side of my Blog for all the details. 
I think that I am still the only Aussie in the group,
so will you come and play?



It is FNSI and I have a little pile of projects sitting 
on my cutting table awaiting my attention :o)

Enjoy your evening.

Doll Quilt Swap - April


 Doll Quilters

A monthly swap of a Doll quilt anyone?
There is a theme nominated every month but you don't have to go with it.
The first round was this month and the theme was 
3 Colours
For a while now I have been wanting to make a Circle quilt
so I took this opportunity to do so for my partner
Vivian (no blog).  So here is the Mini Quilt aka Doll Quilt that I sent to Vivian in the US :o)



There is Hand quilting around all the circles.

This is the amazing mini that I rec'd yesterday with a Savy Charm pack. I am very spoilt.


perfect colours for me. It now has pride of place on my table for all to see.


Such beautiful colours that I had to take it outside amongst the leaves, and in the tree :o)


The Quilting is Perfect
Vivian, a huge thank you, I LOVE IT. You are one very talented lady.

I now have my partner for May so I need to put my thinking cap on.
Theme, if I choose to use it is "May Flowers".

Look what I got

There was no sewing for me yesterday
but there was a parcel in the mail


This is the beautiful Mini that I have received from Sonia in the DQS12

It is just perfect and I am honoured to have had Sonia make it just for me :o)


I love the mix of solids with prints and the quilting sets it off perfectly.


Sonia also included a Charm Pack for me to play with :o)
Martinique by 3 Sisters - I already have ideas!

I feel so special and I now have my new Mini hanging proudly above my computer in my sewing space,
want to see?  (There is a bit of a mess but I am sure you will understand)



I have moved the hexagon one now as I need the light through
the window now the days are getting darker.

Thank you again Sonia.
I LOVE it
