    I received mine today from argentium. She embellished the little quilt so nicely and sent me beads, a needlefelt pin cushion and deco pins to go with it. All so nice and they are special, so glad she sent them to me. Will certainly hang it for next years 4th of July celebration and use the pin wheel too! Thank you so much for sending and [ATTACH=CONFIG]424656[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]424657[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]424658[/ATTACH] making sure I got this from you

    Jaba, I'm so sorry it took so long to get to you but I'm glad you like it. And I should take this opportunity to show off the one you sent me... again, apologies for the belated "thank you". It's gorgeous and it should have gotten it's "ooh and ahh" moment on here when I received it.

    Jaba,
    i love the way you used the star fabric for the binding. It literally makes the quilt edges sparkle....like fireworks!

    Deborah,
    you have no control over postal services! Maybe customs thought you were sending me secret messages in Japanese! Remember....all good things come to she who waits.

    Beautiful quilts ladies. Jaba I love the flower and flag print. It reminds me of fabrics I saw in Civil War museums. Southerners weren't allowed to show their cities flags so they created floral fabric to represent the flag.
