I always enjoy seeing what the postie brings, but today was really special because my parcel contained my Brit Quilt Swap quilt.........it was from Alison from
Little Island Quilting and it came all the way from Guernsey.
Now when I saw this quilt evolve, on the flickr group, I had a very strong feeling that it could possibly be for me - but you don't want to hope too much................but, it was ok to hope 'cos it WAS mine - first of all I pulled out this beautifully wrapped in tissue, package..............
and then -
Isn't it fabulous? Alison read me just right - this little beauty has been hand quilted which makes it even more special for me as I
rarely, never, hand quilt. So a huge thank you Alison. This has been my first swap - if anyone out there is considering joining a swap but feels a bit unsure - DO IT, it's fun.
AND there was more, in my package............
a beautiful tea towel that will never have to dry a dish!!
Happy Monday!!
Lucky you.
