SWL mini quilt swap

I have really been enjoying the swaps held at one of my local quilt shops, Stitched With Love. This time around we swapped mini quilts. I received my friend Paula's name in the swap & was delighted to sew for her! Paula loves cool colors, blues and purples, and expressed an interest in a Sewing Machine Quilt, so that's the direction I went for her...

 

Of course I included some extra goodies in my swap package for her. Among them was this needle book that I made to match her quilt...

She seemed to really like them both.  I'm so glad!

I received  this WONDERFUL quilt from my friend Sarah....

I really hit the jackpot, didn't I? Sarah has so much talent and really puts her heart into everything she does. The quilt includes my favorite colors, aqua and red,  and also includes Sarah's favorite color, pink. She even fussy cut the two birds for the center, one red and one pink, to represent each of us. I can't wait to hang this gorgeous mini in my studio!

I really must show you all of the quilts that were swapped, hanging together on the Stitched with Love design wall...

Can you believe the talent represented here? I'm so lucky to be a part of this awesome group of quilters.
