Four seasons quilt swap received!

Came home from running errands today to find a big white envelope on the porch containing my Four Season's Quilt Swap quilt, from Jessica in Oregon. What a great thing to come home to! It was a quilt I'd never seen on the flickr group where people post their work in progress, so it was doubly fun because it was a total surprise!

When I first opened it up, I saw this side of it and oooohed and aaahed delightedly for several minutes before realizing that this is actually the BACK of the quilt:



Then I turned it over and was just blown away by the beautiful, whimsical front:



Check out the closeup of the dark-haired little girl on the swing:


Also in the package was a lovely card and a little hat for Sofie with a cat face and ears. She went to bed for her nap wearing this and I don't think she's ever going to take it off:


Here's Sofie expressing her true feelings about her new quilt, which will be hung in her room:


Thank you Jessica!! We love it!
