I have had the privilege and pleasure of getting to know fellow blogger Teje for some months now! She is an incredibly talented and considered quilter, and a keen animal lover too! (you should check out her amazing paper piecing! Wow!)
Inspired by this book.......
..... Teje has made this stunning mini quilt, and sent both to me!
How lucky am I! Just look at the details! And the quilting is stunning!
I get to keep the quilt, read the book, and then make something inspired by the book to pass on to another blogger! What a great idea!
And it's just as well there's no time schedule to this blog hop, as I haven't started reading the book yet!! I don't have a lot of free time at the moment, but I used to 'eat' books! So I'm hoping I can soon start to read this book, in a big, squishy armchair, in front of a roaring open fire, with a
Thank you once again T, for sharing and blessing me with your talent and creativity.

It is a lovely quilt, and I love all those baskets too.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely gift and a great idea to pass it on. Enjoy the book and I look forward to seeing what you create from it. Your sewing room looks delightful!
ReplyDeleteHi Judith! Thank you so much for your sweet words! This was my first bird and I feel pain seeing those unmatching points (auch). This bird got me hooked and now I have made several more.
ReplyDeleteI love your baskets! How great idea to see what's inside.
Have a lovely Sunday and I hope you have soon time to felax in your cosy arm chair! x Teje
What a great idea, and a lovely gift.
ReplyDeleteLucky you! What a beautiful quilt! And such a nice idea, although it is a lot of work to make something like this. I think that we all need more hours in a day! Patchwork and Quilting is sure a kind of Addiction!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful wee mini and a fab idea! We all need a good book and squishy chair every now and then!
ReplyDeleteInteresting blog hop idea. Such a sweet birdie quilt. Your armchair and roaring fire sound very enticing.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful x

ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful wee quilt and a lovely idea. I see we share the same canvas in our sewing room!
ReplyDeletelove the mini quilt and also the Jennifer Chiaverini novel. I have read most of them and feel I know all the Elm Creek quilters really well, I would love to join their quilt camp! You will enjoy them too I am sure, they become very addictive! x
