My birthday is Tuesday, and my mother-in-law just gave me my present tonight!

I had admired this in one of her quilt books, so I was thrilled.

I feel like I'm always giving quilts to people, but most of the people I know don't quilt so I hardly ever get quilty presents. Since she does quilt (and it's great that we have that to share) I've been hoping for awhile that she'd make me something. She makes really beautiful things, and always puts a lot of time into them.

Thank you! The quilt measures about 16.5" by 19". It came out of the book "Bits and Pieces:18 Small Quilts" by Karen Costello Soltys. There are several really cute little quilts in that book. The name of this one is "Japanese Circles".
