It's the Seasonal Little Gatherings from Primitive Gatherings. I was helping a friend finish a project and she surprised me with this. She knows I did not expect anything, but as we all know, fabric IS the perfect gift :)! I imagine these fabrics will show up in my quilts for years to come. Thank you sweet friend - your friendship is a treasure in my life.
My next surprise came when I found out I had won the giveaway from Kathie at Inspired by Antique Quilts. Kathie and I (and a million other quilters) share a love of Civil War quilts and I heart just about everything she makes :). This is the cutest little wallhanging.
All the fabric to complete the top is included. Since I'm kind of at a stuck place on my Jubilee quilt, this little project is the perfect thing to distract me while I wait for more inspiration.
After checking out the fabric in the kit, I realized I did not have a single duplicate of anything in my stash. That's always exciting!! I actually started cutting this morning so maybe I'll have something to show soon. I haven't made a little quilt like this before, so I'm excited. Thanks for sharing Kathie. I can't wait to see this finished. And since I've been doing so much applique, I'm in the groove :).
Have a great day,
Karen
