Sent and Received Safely...(phew!)

009

Abbie's quilt arrived safely, so now I can show you what it looks like. I just gave a sneak peek here. Now I can reveal the whole quilt. It ended up measuring about 18 inches square. It was a fun challenge trying to incorporate all her fabrics and embellishments.

I used some extra strips of fabric for the back. And I turned the ribbons and buttons into flowers and placed them in the border.

Best of all Abbie wrote and says she loves it so I'm happy. She says she'll be sending my little quilt off to me soon. It may arrive this week! I can't wait to see my pile of fabrics and embellishments turned into a quilt!

I love the button and ribbon flowers. So cute. It looks like jewelry on the quilt. The perfect accessory.

That is a beautiful art quilt. It is so fun to make small quilts because you can be more detailed. Great job! I love the fabrics you chose too.
