Guess what was in my mailbox yesterday! My quilt from ALQS8!
I was the lucky recipient of Marei's quilt (she's blogless, so I'm linking to the post about her quilt on the Another Little Quilt Swap blog.
I absolutely love it, especially since it's not a technique or style I've ever tried. I hope you can see some of the gorgeous texture created by her weaving, stitching and interesting fabrics.
This ladybug peeking out makes me smile.
Marei also included this great stitched card. I'm not sure if there are little seed beads or gems embedded in the fabric on top of the leaf or if she bedazzled it. Either way, it shimmers like dew drops on new spring foliage.
What a clever idea for when I want to include an extra special touch to a gift or occasion.
Thanks, Marei! I love it!

Very nice! Love the way she did the background.
ReplyDeleteYou're most welcome. I'm glad it got to you in good shape and that you are enjoying it. The fabric does indeed include little "bits o' shine"....straight off the bolt.
