The finish of mini quilt swap 1

I finally finished my mini quilt for the Quilting Gallery Friendship Embroidery swap and I'm quite pleased with the result.





As with all the projects I complete I know it could have been better if.....   But that is about the decisions I made during the process so there is no point in worrying about it now. I would be happy keeping the mini quilt or receiving it from someone else and this is the important part.  So I am celebrating the completion of my first quilt swap and the quilt is now on its way to its new owner. I hope she likes it.

I have already posted about the process and you can read that here. The quilt is 18 inches square and hand quilted in the ditch and has a label on the back. I forgot to take a photo of the back but in keeping with the theme of the embroidery the backing fabric has a floral print on it set on a blue background.

Now all I have to do is finish my other mini quilt swap so I can post the photo before the 1st October. Then I can start one of my new projects .. yipee

    1. Thanks Debbie. I can't wait to get my quilt. I didn't realise quilt swaps were so exciting.
