When I got back from MFQS today, I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me......YOUR QUILT ARRIVED SAFE AND SOUND!!!!
It is absolutely wonderful. If you are a new quilter you have a GREAT future in quilting. Whoever or where ever you took your lessons, you had a fantastic teacher. All of your intersections meet perfectly and your quilting is amazing. I am going to a sit and sew tomorrow and I will take it to show off. You did an amazing job, don't second guess yourself. You took your time and did it correctly.
I loved the post card that was enclosed and the batiks are just wonderful. Will post pic in a few minutes!
FELLOW SWAPPERS, COUNT YOURSELF LUCKY IF YOU GET PAIRED WITH JUDITH1005, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED!

Your mom did a fantastic job teaching you, but you are the one that put the lessons to good use. As you become more confident, you will surely blossom into super quilter. You have a good eye for color and design also. Please be sure to thank your mom for me as I was the receipient of your wonderful talent. Keep up the good work. >>>>> Measure twice, cut once!
thank you. i am so glad you like it. my mom has been teaching me. and yes, i just need to have a little more confidence in myself. (i'm a terrible measurer. i really fight to make sure things are cut just so.) but you were a great partner. and this was loads of fun. i'm glad i started out with this as my first swap. :-D

Such wonderful quilts already arriving! You guys are amazing! I may be MIA for a while. My Mac decided to die and I use it for the real, paying job. It will take me a few days and more than a few dollars to recover. Send gummi bears. These pretty quilts are keeping me from tears.
