Happy Valentine's Day, my friends! A wonderful thing about Blog Land is that we are loved and cherished by each other every day. Reading blogs can always cheer me up when I'm down!
I was pretty much out of it, as far as crafting, this Valentine season. Didn't really get into it until last week, and I didn't feel like scurrying so I only did a few. After I opened my box of Valentine tags from swaps the past few years, I regretted not having a swap this year. Next year, for sure!
This is the one I made for Jade (the little girl I babysit). I was so excited to find the heart with her name on it at the country store last week. It's the perfect touch! The background is from a paper tablecloth I found as a yard sale leftover last summer.
When a friend moved about five years ago, she asked if I could hold on to a few quilts/comforters for her. She never returned for them, and I can't seem to track her down. This quilt (machine stitched) is so ragged that I doubt it would make a good cutter, but it has such cute patterns that I thought I'd show them to you. By the way, if anyone wants it (or a part of it) for a cutter, let me know and you'll only have to pay postage!
Sue, I would love to have that quilt if you don't want it anymore. I'd gladly pay the postage! Love the fabric, and the sweet tag you made your little friend Jade!

ReplyDeleteYour little tag is so adorable.
The fabrics on the quilt are so neat. I love old fabric and try to buy them when i run across something I like.
That is very sweet to share the quilt. I will pass because I am not a crafter. I am sure someone will turn it into something great!
Happy Valentine's Day and thanks for sharing the photos of the pretty quilt. I love your tag too. You're one talented gal. Thanks for hosting.
