Here are two sneak peeks at the mini quilt I made for this swap. I'm having fun working with buttons! It was very loosely inspired by a greeting card I bought at
Svensk Form in Stockholm a few weeks ago.
This is my 200th blog post! I had no idea what would come of this blog when I started it nearly two years ago, but it's been a lot of fun so far! I love being part of such a diverse, global group of quilters. I didn't mark my 100th post or the one year mark because I was away from home when those happened last summer, but I would like to make up for it by having a give-away now. So, anyone who comments on
this post by Friday morning (Finnish time) will be entered to win a mini-quilt made by me. (Any lurkers and non-quilting friends are welcome to comment, too!)
