Linny and Terry, glad you liked them. I enjoyed making these little guys. These are the last anything I made on my old machine. I bought a new machine and was afraid to use it on the minis because I didn't know how to use it yet and didn't want to mess up too bad.lol. The silver on the gray quilt is "I don't know what it is called" but has a shiny front and a cotton back, kinda like pleather but thinner. I don't know if that is any help.lol

sewbeadit-I received my quilt from you today and I love it....have to tell you that I have several pieces of my own artwork displayed in our home and they are all done with charcoal from many years ago so your quilt goes perfectly with them....plus you did a beautiful job. Thanks so much........I may get help later today posting pics, but if you want to go ahead and post.

Linny and abd both quilts are so pretty. Linny that design and color is stunning. abd I know you like bright colors, and that is pretty bright colors, and I like the tall shape used. Both are quilted nicely. SewBeadIt I did a lot of looking, and that is the nicest I have seen using the colors you used, and the circles, etc.

I am SO glad that you like them! This quilt swap was kind of like cooking for someone you don't know. You never know what they might like so the best thing to do is just jump in!

This is from jaciqltznok. I love the hummingbird, and the embroidery, and the flowers! It's just gorgeous. And the colors are really quite sophisticated. I think it's kind of "modern arty." I am using J's photo b/c it really captures the stitching and what I think is a hand-dye fabric in the center behind the bird. Jaciqltznok used a metallic thread on the outlining for bird which really don't show on my photo and her colors are much more vibrant. I wish I could hold this mini up to everyone to show off th beautiful work. What fun! Thank you!
When can we do this again?????
