Beautiful Doll Quilts ladies. I love each of them. Very nice work!

Bertie - I love the bird quilts - great work on the Sweet Land of Liberty sistadebbra

Dabler, really cute quilt. While I love all things Americana, I really enjoy the muted R/W/Bs more. Have really enjoyed seeing all the wonderful versions this month!

I received my quilt from Cognito and it is gorgeous! She even added buttons for my initials- DO! She also included some goodies: scissors with a beautiful fob and case she made herself, fabric and machine needles. She also sent me a card and a letter. I hope she receives my quilt soon-you can never tell with international mail!
Thanks again Cognito! You did an amazing job! Gaijin (D. O.) |
So happy you like it Gaijin! It was my first time ever, believe it or not, to make a string quilt....I have decided I like that process so may do it again some day! Later when I am at my big pooter, I will post pics of the back/label since I know some (like me) love to see those too.:) I am really excited to receive yours...since we mailed the same day, it will be SOON!

Very nice Cognito. I like the prairie points on the side!
|
Lovely quilts! I always love birds! We live in a wooded area and enjoy many different songs-with Mrs. Wren keeping order, of course! She and the Mr. take over any little birdhouse they find.
Cognito-such a sweet string quilt! I haven't made one, either, but keep thinking I will. You were very creative with the different embellishments you added. |

Dabbler's piecing is exquisite as well as the binding, Berryberry. Love your lil quilt!
|
We are amazing! Such a bunch of talent in this little swap.
|
cognito you made a wonderful patriotic string quilt. The goodies just scrumptious.
|
Cognito great job on the string quilt - I have yet to try one - will have to put it in my bucket list.
|
Cogito, you might as well change your user ID to Cognito. That swell misspelling stuck! :D
Sincerely, Korruptyna |

I received my quilt from Gaijin/Deborah in Japan! it is a sweet little thing....Japanese theme. I hope you don't mind me posting here.....last month's thread hasn't been active for over a week AND it fits this month's theme since Gaijin lives in Japan! It is only 11 1/2" wide by 17" tall so you can imagine how petite each block is! She sent a photo copy of the quilt with comments about each block. :)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]424542[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]424544[/ATTACH] I have it hanging in my family room, it is so darling! Thanks Deborah! |
What a treasure and so nicely done!
|
Beautiful, beautiful! A special treasure, Gaijin!
|
What a lovely quilt - BertieD is right - it's a treasure!!
|
I am so glad the pictures posted. I am having a good chuckle at myself.....I thought that I actually posted it in this months...47th because I thought people might not see it in last months....hahaha, somehow I did post it in the correct month! No wonder I couldn't find it when I went back to check, lol! I'm such a goof.
|
Its darling! I love swapping with people out of country. It is worth the extra wait and effort. That is a special keepsake.
|
Yes, I really love this quilt! I am so grateful that Gaijin shared a Japanese themed quilt with me!
|
Cogito - what a beautiful crazy quilt - Gaijin you did a wonderful job putting it together; how very special. I would have it displayed as well.
|
Cogito,
I am so sorry you had to wait so long to receive this mini quilt! It is the first time that airmail took longer than a week to arrive. I had already written it off and was preparing to make another! Thank you for your patience and the lovely quilt you made me and the other goodies! Deborah (Gaijin) |
Wow, Cogito I love the Japanese themed quilt Gaijin made for you, it is so adorable. Are the blocks paper pieced or traditionally pieced, they look so tiny

I received mine today from argentium. She embellished the little quilt so nicely and sent me beads, a needlefelt pin cushion and deco pins to go with it. All so nice and they are special, so glad she sent them to me. Will certainly hang it for next years 4th of July celebration and use the pin wheel too! Thank you so much for sending and [ATTACH=CONFIG]424656[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]424657[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]424658[/ATTACH] making sure I got this from you
|
Java, love your little quilt, how cute is that beading on it. Great work argentium !
|
Jaba, I'm so sorry it took so long to get to you but I'm glad you like it. And I should take this opportunity to show off the one you sent me... again, apologies for the belated "thank you". It's gorgeous and it should have gotten it's "ooh and ahh" moment on here when I received it.

Wow. Gaijin's little quilt is wonderful Lucky you!
Having major computer problems ... my old standby with Windows 7 is dying and the new one --- well, all I can say is don't get Windows 8. Ugh. Hope everyone is staying cool! |
Argentium, you create such wonderful doll quilts! You have a great eye for color and design! It is fantabulous. :)
|
Jaba,
i love the way you used the star fabric for the binding. It literally makes the quilt edges sparkle....like fireworks! :) |
Argentium and Jaba both oohhs and aaahhs for the gorgeous little DQs you made for the red/white and blue swap. Well worth the wait!

Maybe customs thought you were sending me secret messages in Japanese! :D Remember....all good things come to she who waits. :thumbup: |
Beautiful quilts ladies. Jaba I love the flower and flag print. It reminds me of fabrics I saw in Civil War museums. Southerners weren't allowed to show their cities flags so they created floral fabric to represent the flag.
|
Very pretty quilts!
