My DF's mom is sick and has been for weeks. Today's challenge pushed me to make her a card since she is a quilter and the inspiration piece here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
is a quilt.
I looked in my newly acquired "print pack" level 1 hostess gift and there was the perfect quilty looking pattern in green... there you go!
The One of a Kind flower also looks "quilty" to me (is that a word??)... so I paper pieced it to reinforce the quilt theme. I also thought the piece of twill would be reminiscent of the bindings that often come with quilting.
Now for the big news... I did it... my first hat pin from m pretties kit!!! I only got nine and now I only have 8 left. Wow, I guess must really like her! HA (actually she'll appreciate it).
Great challenge and timely! Thanks a bunch!
