Winter Mini Quilt Swap...

I was in Cheryll's Winter Mini Swap.  I received the most gorgeous little quilt from Carin in Sweden.   It has the cutest little cross stitch centre with tiny birds on the branches..just beautiful...
also in the parcel was a bar of Carin's favourite chocolate..yummy..which is not available here in NZ as far as I know (such a shame!)...and a lovely bookmark..

The mini I made was sent to Carin, so unknown to us (because it was a secret swap) we were swap buddies.   Since winter is yet to arrive in the Northern hemisphere Carin will be able to hang it before the year is out. 
I added some beads to the snowflakes and snowman. which are easier to see below.

  6. Both winter minis are gorgeous Lyn. I love the border fabric you used, so wintery, but not traditional colours, perfect for your mini.
