Mini QT Swap - In Person!!!

My latest swap partner just happens to live less than an hour away!  So we decided to get together and swap our mini quilts in person.

Here's my little package all ready to drive up to the mall to meet for lunch!  The theme for this month was Spring.  I used a Hunky Dory charm pack for the quilt and a little bit of the left overs in the fabric basket.

We met for lunch and had such a great time chatting and getting to know one another.  It was so much fun!  After lunch we opened the packages that we brought for each other.

She opened her's first, and this is what I gave to her.  (I snatched this picture from her since I never really got a good picture of the finished quilt!)

And I opened mine and Wow!  What beautiful stitching she did for me!

Look at the hand stitching! I am totally in awe of anyone who can finish a project by hand. You are both very lucky recipients!

It was a lot of fun Tina! I'm so glad we got matched up too! My little quilt is still out on the table even though it's past Easter!
