A Quilt for Winter

This morning I dropped my final 2011 Margaret's Hope Chest quilt off at the Post Office.... 6 weeks late :(  Clearly, I am unable to meet deadlines.

Winter lives in Georgia and she is turning 9.  She likes pink, purple, grey & blue... so I took that opportunity to make a quilt using the Jay McCarroll line of fabric "Garden Friends" with one "Woodland Wonderland" print mixed in.

My camera managed to corrupt all the pictures that I took last night... so here are some of the fabric swatches.




The quilt is the "Perfect Ten" pattern by Swirly Girl Designs and was quilted by Rhonda Loy of Dexter.

What I'm Reading...

A Christmas Present :)  I am very excited about this book.
Middlesex {also by Jeffrey Eugenides} is an all time favorite.
