I'm swapping with Liz in Connecticut. She said she'd like a mini-quilt and that she likes bright batiks. That's no hardship for me!
The flower basket pattern is by Piece o' Cake designs. The border design is by Edyta Sitar. The center block is 12" fin; borders are 2-1/2" fin. so the mini-quilt is 17".
(The teal circles along the basket are the common fabric that all participants are to use in some way for their swap projects.)
Last evening Jenny Riddle dramatized characters from Cokie Roberts' Capital Dames for the Lake County Women's Coalition's annual Women's Equality Day program. She was very entertaining! And now I've added the book to want-to-read list.

ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful quilt. I have been an oncology patient for a couple of years plus I have MS. I have decided to stop treatment and just enjoy my family freinds and enjoy my crafts. I do make wall hangings for our oncology department and wards. I only tell you this as I would love to buy the pattern and with your permission make one or two for oncology and one for myself.
