Hint, Hint... it's a boy...

A few years ago a co-worker of my husband's became grandmother to a sweet little boy.  I whipped up a quilt top and hubby quilted it. Here is a picture of that top without the final border etc. I somehow forgot to take a photo of it all finished!  http://thequiltingbelle.blogspot.com/2010/06/snips-and-snails-and-puppy-dog-tails.html

Well she has another grandbaby on the way.. due any day now.. and once again it's a boy!  So hubby pulled fabrics this weekend and whipped up a top.  I love that he used some of the same fabrics as the first quilt and the pattern is similar, but not the same. Here is a hint of what's to come...



There will be a photo of the final product once finished.

Swappin'

My online quilt buddies and I had a little Christmas Swap. You sent your partner something to do with quilting... something to do with Faith.. something to do with Christmas.. and something just for her.. and 1 item had to be homemade / handmade.

Here is what I received:



Here is what I sent: (I added a tin of Pirouette Cookies after I took the picture)



Love sending and getting goodies!
