Easter Mini Quilt and swap on Ravelry.

Hi everyone, I signed up on Cherylls Blog  to make three mini quilts  this year and the first one was an Easter Swap for my partner Kerry, I made this mini quilt using this Easter sampler pattern from Red Brolly.

I included a hand made gift tag that was made in Photoshop using the Easter design I had stitched and I used a photograph of the fabric so that it all co-ordinated, I then made some hand made gift tags and a bag topper to match.  (You can locate the round gift tags and the gift bag topper as a free download on my freebies page.) The little yellow crochet pin cushion was a perfect match for this set so I included  that too.

In my next post I will show the gift that Kerry sent to me. 

 

I also signed up for a swap on Ravelry, my partner Heike  lives in Germany and this is what she sent me. Thankyou Heike, I loved it all!

Heike sent me some Kit Kat and Mars Bar chocolates that were demolished pretty quickly, a hand knitted shawl in my favourite colour, some gorgeous silk yarn,  a cookery book, coffee, a pretty pin and knitting markers, as you can see everything was so nice, I am really pleased with these gorgeous gifts.
I cannot show you what I am sending Heike until she receives my gift, she should receive it by the end of April and then I will show pictures on my blog.

Thankyou Heike, you made my day.

Until next time - Happy Stitching!
