A Quilt Gift for my Far Away Friend.

I am so busy in the midst of preparing my new sewing room.  Getting it ready for many great moments of sewing in quiet bliss.  I have been sanding and painting and sanding and painting.  Moving in and out furniture.  Deciding what to hang where.  It's coming along so beautifully and I can't wait to share it with you all.  It has taken all of my spare time.  Which means I'm quite behind on things like blogging, laundry, blog reading, laundry, answering emails, laundry, and brushing my hair. 

So for a quick blog post I thought I could finally share with you the quilt I made for my wonderful friend Sabine.  I didn't share it while I was making it because I wanted it to be a surprise for her.  She just received it last week and now I can show it to you all.  She is such a kind and generous new friend.  And has spoiled me way beyond what I deserve.  I hope she snuggles up with her new quilt and is reminded of how much her friendship means to me. 

I think I have an uncontrollable picture posting problem.  Really, I don't know why I do it.  I am perfectly aware that so many of them really look the same.  Here I go again..

I do love how this quilt turned out.  There is something so old fashioned and quaint about a pinwheel quilt.  I love pinwheels. This quilt is made from the same fabrics as my Summer Stash quilt.  I even had enough left over from my stash for the borders and binding.  I'm so glad I did because now we have sister quilts across the globe. 

I know, I know, enough with the pictures already.  I'll enter therapy I promise. 

I do highly recommend making a pinwheel quilt though.  And if you can part with it, send it to a much appreciated friend.  I'm so glad I did. x

The pinwheel square is one of the first squares I learned how to do. Actually, it's one of the few squares I know how to do. ;)
Beautiful choice of colors, too.
