First, I'm building my New! and Improved website. YEAH! No pics of that, sorry...it will be open soon so just hang in there. I will have a grand opening sale too, woo-hoo! For now, you'll just have to shoppe at my wonderful old site....which has some great new Redwork fabrics from BaumTextiles. They're soooo gorgeous. Did you see the new slideshow? I put it there so you could see all the wonderful reds with beige...not white! Do you know how hard it is to find a red print with beige? Very! The pics just don't do them justice. They are stunning.
Next, I was in a swap. Yep, you know me, always looking for adventure! So I joined a "Mini Art Cupcake Quilt" swap. Did you get that? Wow, that was a mouthful! Now, only after I received my quilt did I realize that these women meant business. But how was I supposed to know this wasn't a beginner level swap? Hello!???? Now I'm at a loss. You think my swap partner might mind that she got the runt of the litter so to speak? Oh dear, I'm in soooo over my head here. Take a look at this mini quilt I received. I've seen lesser quilts at the Vermont Quilt Festival, hello! This one came from Australia! Sorry, I didn't press it...this is what it looked like right out of the wrapper....
It arrived in a cupcake bundle with a cupcake card....how awesome is that? Oh, and the artist/quilter embroidered her name and country on the binding.
So now you see...how am I supposed to match this so I don't feel like I'm shortchanging my own swap buddy? I have to mull this one over, LOL!
