It's not over til it's over!! We got back from our RV Gypsy Trip last week, and the first thing I did was open a package from Happy Cat Quilter with a terrific batik fall doll quilt inside. It was worth coming home for, altho we had a wonderful time on our trip. Thanks you so much, Happy Cat - I'm not seeing your pics posted, so I'm going to give it a try so the others can see this darling quilt. I have my troubles with camera and technology, etc, but am going to give it a shot this afternoon.

At long last
Well, nothing is easy for me on the computer, but my Techie husband helped me get my photos onto my data drive finally this morning (compllications too numerous to elaborate on), and I hope I reduced them to printable size for the board, so hopefully - TA DAH! my beautiful doll quilt from Happy Cat!

Now I got it!
Here are photos of Happy Cat's "Autumn Harvest" I love the batiks and think her color choices are super. Also the leaf details are so interesting and dimensional. Thanks again, Linda for this cute seasonal piece!

Now I'm on a roll!
Happy Cat wanted me to post mine also, since she had a problem about this, so now that I'm on a roll, here are three snapshots of the doll quilt I sent to her.
I was inspired seeing this pattern on the QB in full size quilts, and decided to try it for myself in minature. Then I got the bee in my bonnet to quilt it in my decorative stitches that I enjoy on my machine. My FMQ is quite amateurish (and it probably will continue to be) but I enjoy trying it out once in a while. My daughter keeps telling me "Done is better than Perfect" so I "just do it." This was a fun project and I'm appreciative to the board for sponsoring these swaps, and to my partner for sharing her skills!
