TGIFF - A Swap Mini (Take 2)

 Welcome to TGIFF! This week I'm sharing a finish that's not mine, but is mine! How's that for confusing? 😄 As part of the Canadian Modern Quilt Collective's first mini quilt swap, I made a mini that I sent to Laurie. You can see that here. But since it was a swap, that means I also received a quilt made for me, and I wanted to share that today.

This mini was made for me by Marilyn (she's @quilter_eme on IG). Isn't it fabulous?

I love the improv curves and the hand stitched details.

I love the pieced back, too.

Marilyn lives in BC, which means this little quilt traveled clear across the country to reach me. She took the quilt to a beach on the west coast to work on the binding, so I took it to a beach here on the east coast for pictures after I received it. It truly went from shore to shore!

I love that I get to own this beautiful mini quilt, and it's going to have a special place in my sewing room. It's the perfect size to hang on the closet door, so I think that's where it will go.

Now, what have you finished lately? Link it up below, and be sure to visit some of the other links to celebrate their finishes, too.

  1. I love that the mini truly traveled from coast to coast in Canada. The details are lovely, and it's clear she thought a lot about what to make you. I hope you get to enjoy seeing it hang in your sewing room for years to come!
