with all sorts of pretty 30s and 40s reproduction fabric. I like it so much that I've cut extras for another quilt or two.

I forgot to take a picture of this little quilt after I finished hand stitching it and before I sent it.. In my opinion this picture doesn't do it justice. The lighting wasn't right and the color I chose to photograph it against was all wrong and ..... oh well, live and learn.
I really hope that my partner likes it. I realize that lime green or whatever you chose to name this color isn't everyone's cup of tea; but I love it and couldn't resist using it. If she hates it I'll offer to make her another one.

This is the quilting on the back of my newest doll quilt made for a swap. I used red thread to do the quilting, which I wasn't too sure about but now that it's quilted, I'm finding that I like it that way.

A picture of the little doll quilt just before I quilted it with red thread. I quite like how it has turned out. Now, I''m getting ready to put the binding on; which is my favorite part of making these little quilts.
This little quilt is for a swap that I'm involved in. I hope that my swap partner likes it.

I had already posted about this little quilt back in January, but somehow the photo got deleted so I just thought that I would make another entry. So, here's that little quilt again from Jan STUD.

here's the front of that primitive heart. I made it from very old ticking found at a local flea market and vintage buttons and beads. I filled it will cotton stuffing and lavender.
