Happy Mail

I received happy mail this week!

 Its reveal time for the DQS13 flickr group. 

As I retrieved my package from the mailbox, I noticed who the sender was. 

I knew exactly which little mini was inside. I had kept my eye on this one. 

I really liked it and it was the mini my partner was making. 

That's right we were each others partner.

This is what she made for me.   

Isn't she a real beauty!?

I love the fabric choices and the colors are beautiful!

 Here's a corner close-up

And the quilting close-up

Aww, the quilting, just beautiful and so intricate!

  

This is the little mini I sent to  her

One of the reasons I  swap is to stretch myself, 

maybe try something new and hopefully make something my partner loves and 

I'm not embarrassed to say I made. 

With this one the only stretching I did, was working with white, which I'm not fond of. 

Toward the end of this mini making time, I almost scrapped it and 

went in another direction. I was disappointed in my pattern choice. 

I decided to finish it up before starting with the next and 

I'm so glad I did.

I fell in love with it in the end!

A little closer look. 

Thank you Norma, for a great swap!

I love my new little doll quilt!
