My run on secret sewing finished a while ago! And I can now reveal to you project no. 4 (only 1 more to go!).
My lovely Brit bee buddy, Susan, had a big significant birthday in July – you know the ones with a 0 on the end!!!
Well we in the Brit bee love nothing more than to hatch a secret sewing plan behind the back of an unsuspecting fellow member!
We decided to make Susie a wallhanging for her new sewing space, miniature blocks on a low volume background.
Here she is receiving the finished mini quilt at retreat on Friday!
As always, Susan’s reactions never fail to disappoint!!
The blocks I contributed were Special Blessings and a Shamrock!
I pieced the quilt together and Trudi quilted and bound it! Isn’t it fab! I’m sorry I didn’t take time to take more close up pics of it! I was so caught up in watching Susie’s surprise!
And if you want to read more about what this wee quilt means to Susan (warning – tissues needed!) then hop on over to Susan’s blog.
It was a delight and a privilege for me to be involved in the making of this special mini quilt for a special friend.
And more exciting news!
My daughter has re-opened her Etsy shop and is now stocking lots more of these cute quilting row markers!
There are sets of 6 & 12 available, as well as gorgeous fimo glazed jewellery! Go check it out, and tell your friends!
