The small quilt I made should have arrived today for my swap partner, so I thought I would show you the finished product...
Pretty Cute, huh??? I added the Bird because she loves Sue Spargo so I thought she would like that. I also bound it with brown fabric to kind of frame it.
Happy Monday Everyone!
Hugs,

SMALL QUILT SWAP 2
OK I admit it, I have been bitten by the Small Quilt Swap bug!!! This was sooooo much fun and the small quilts that were made were all soooo Beautiful, honestly, soooooo with that said, I am going to open up the New Year with JANUARY 1ST - 15TH to join our SMALL QUILT SWAP 2!!!!
Now for the fun part....so I was thinking of a "THEME"...Winter! For a Winter Theme, we have lots of Holidays you could incorporate into your small quilt,for instance, we have Valentine's Day, St.Patrick's Day, Sweetest Day then you could add Hearts, Shamrocks to your small quilt either through Applique (by machine or hand) or by fabrics you use, or if you like Snowmen, Flying Geese, Snow, Trees, Vintage Sleds, Angels (not Christmassy though) more homespun, you would add a snowman or a Tree to your quilt (through applique by machine or hand)!
What do you think??? A WINTER THEMED SMALL QUILT! The deadline would be January 15th and due by March 1st, that way it is still cold and snowy in most places and we could all hunker down and sew together!! Oh I think I am on to something here!!! It would certainly life our spirits during those long, long months! Anyone interested???
Hugs,
Mary
