Spoiled!

DQS 11 goodies from DeeRoo G

The post man made me quite a happy girl this evening when I checked the mailbox, and lo and behold was my package from my DQS 11 partner!!  Dolores, DeeRoo G over on flickr, spoiled me rotten!

DQS 11 doll quilt from DeeRoo G

I am just completely in love with this little mini.  She paper pieced these teensy tiny little blocks using one of my favorite combinations of bright fun fabrics with grey, AND hand quilted this beauty.  Can you believe that Dolores almost scrapped this quilt and didn't send it??  After much convincing by almost everyone in the DQS pool she was convinced to send it, and I'm so grateful she did!!

This little guy measures 12"x18" and is already proudly displayed on my sewing room wall.

Not only is the doll quilt just perfection, but Dolores included all these fun extras!  Amy Butler fat quarters, pillow patterns and a fun Christmas pattern, adorable ribbons and a hand made journal as well as an adorable hand made ornament.  (I feel like those infomercials, "but wait, there's more!")  Like I said, she spoiled me.

DQS 11 label from DeeRoo G

I'm almost sad that this little label is on the backside and will be facing the wall!  Look at that hand embroidery, just love.

I just cannot say thank you enough, Dolores, if you are reading, thank you again!!

    That is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. I'm in awe of that six-pointed-pinwheel-star shape. Maybe it's fairly commonplace, but I have never seen it before now and I think it's super cool. I am not flickr savvy enough to go figure out how to do it myself, so please pass on my compliments to your swap partner! :)
