I just had to show the glorious quilt that Donna from Quilt Escape made me for Chookyblue's Secret Santa Christmas Swap. This is how it came out of the parcel. I love it already ....
and this is just the backing fabric!
Ta da! Aren't I spoilt and these photos certainly don't do it justice! The colours are much more vibrant in real-life.
For someone who doesn't make/finish a lot of large quilts, it is so exciting to receive this.
And for someone who tends to quilt with straight lines these swirls are the stuff of dreams!
Thank you so much Donna. I absolutely adore your gift. Donna was extremely generous and next post I will show you my other gifts. Enjoy your day.
What a beautiful gift! Hope you and your family have a very merry christmas.
