I sent out my Thimbleblossoms mini quilt swap this week. After a long struggle with what fabrics to use that would suit my partner's tastes, I ended up using some Cotton + Steel basics and a Jeni Baker stripe. I loved how the quilt came out, but was a little worried still. Luckily, the recipient commented that she liked the colors. Whew! Here's some photos of the quilt and extras I sent:

It's really hard to get a nice photo of this quilt for some reason; this one has the truest color representation. |
I also received my quilt for this swap. I'm guessing my partner is very new to quilting. I love the needle minder she sent (it's the little aqua flower to the left below). I'm planning to use it as a regular magnet. I also like the little hexagon label on the back.
I sent out my next birthday club gift to Jennifer in Germany. Here's loads of photos of what I sent. I had a lot of fun putting this one together.
