Oh My!! DQS opening day

Today is opening day for the 3rd annual EB Doll quilt swap. It is the first year I have taken part, and I am so very glad I did!!

I was sent a beautiful quilt by Cylie and I am in LOVE with it! So much work has gone into this quilt and the colours are wonderful. I have not yet seen all the other quilts from this swap, but I am pretty sure that I must have the best one :)




Quilting

Circles

The back

I was outside this morning, in the rain, trying to remember how to use the manual settings on my camera so I could take good low light photos!


I posted a quilt off to Alissa. I hope she likes it, I did! So much so in fact, that I am making one for me as well!

  6. Wow Becky these are both gorgeous - the one you made and the one you sent!
    I do love the circles though it's such a modern and grown-up looking quilt.

  10. The quilt Cylie made for you is stunning. I saw her sneak peek and couldn't imagine what she was doing with the circles on the white. The borders set it off perfectly, and the backing is as good as the front.

    I am also very taken with your little blue-bird of happiness - wouldn't this make a sweet centerpiece for a baby quilt.
