i combined two challenges to make this DTGD10 challenge card. i really thought i'd never want to make another quilt card after DH and i put 100 quilt card kits together, but i kind of miss them - not all the work, just the end result. lol. the sentiment is computer generated and die cut with nestabilities, as is the quilt which was punched and faux stitched. i think the tension is worse than my 25 year old sewing machine. thanks for looking.

Hey You! What a perfectly wonderful and colorful quilt card you've brought to the gallery. After having done 100 of these before, I can truly understand why you would like to bring one to the gallery. Your colors are wonderful, but it's really that faux cross stitching that got my attention. Wow, is that ever a lot of hand work! I couldnt have done that. You and the King, though, you always manage to give us something really spectacular.

What a beautiful and comforting Quilt / Card!! You chose the warmest and most inviting colors, and I had to look twice to realize you didn't sew this on a machine, you did it by HAND - faux stitching looks so real!! Great job, Linda!! Hugs!
