Swaps

Hi Friends! I think I may be addicted to mini quilt swaps. It's so fun to receive something totally unexpected in the mail! For Doll Quilt Swap 12, I received this beauty from my partner, Nicole.

And for Quilting Gallery's New Beginnings Mini Swap, I received this one from my new Alaskan friend, Natalie - the detail is really amazing, including the beading, sparkles and quilting.

And for the Dandelion Quilt Swap Dandelion Quilts Mini Swap, my partner Joy expressed a love of batiks. I found some Tonga Batiks from Timeless Treasures to pair with Kona charcoal and made this 20" mini.

 Joy sent me 2 minis - one which perfectly and magically matches my dining room - Bingo! The other is a batiks with cool quilting in the negative space. I lucked out! 

I'm thinking of hosting a swap of some sort - mug rugs or minis - anyone interested?
