As usual, I had a hard time capturing the colors, but believe me when I say it is beautiful, and exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks so much Vickie.
I also received this 1/4 yard piece of fabric in the mail. You have no idea how excited I was with this.
As you may recall, I decided to add an additional border to my Christmas quilt, and was unable to locate any of the fabric locally. So off to the sewing room I went, anxious to finish the border.
Happy Friday the 13th to me:
Guess what I did the rest of the afternoon!
Contentedly frogging.......Sunny

Sunny! Me and my seam ripper have become very good friends lately, too. I cannot find it sometimes and I panic.... I need to invest in several more! Happy you found your fabric and I love, love, love your new swap block!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great swap block! Lucky you!! I love the buttons on it, so cute. Also happy for you that you found the fabric you needed to finish your quilt top. :o) Contentment is such a powerful word. Thanks for choosing it, and mentioning it in each post. It's good to be reminded to be content. xo
ReplyDeleteWhy you don't need to 'frog' that--you have just created a new block design!!!!
ReplyDeleteI manage to do alot of 'frogging' too--on the quilting and the cross stitching end of things==!!!!

Hugs, Di and kitty
What a sweet basket block and how wonderful that you got the fabric swatch you needed. Can't wait to see the finished product.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like the block it was fun to make, I was a little nervous about if you would like the buttons or not so I'm glad you do. Can't wait to see mine.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful basket Vickie made for you.
ReplyDeleteSeams we have all been doing a lot of FROGGING. LOL
But I have finally done my border. YEH!!!
It always makes me giggle when I see pieces sewn in the wrong place. I use to think "how on earth can they make that mistake".... now I know!!! I am sure that is how some new blocks have been created. Wow I love your basket block, very creative. Hugs
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw the pic I thought, hey wow, I haven't seen that design before, interesting :-) Hope you are doubly contented by now, after frogging and then fixing! Love the gorgeous basket block - lucky you.
