Little Quilt Swap

This swap was taken for the book Little Quilts by Sarah Feilke and Amy Lobsiger.  In this swap, you had to make a quilt from the book for your swap partner.  My partner was fond of the bee quilt so that is the one I made for her.

Everything about this quilt was a first for me. I have never made hexagons or have done English paper piecing.  the hand sewing was new to me along with embroidery for the bee.  By the time I managed all of that newness I was not up to hand quilting, so I cheated and machined quilted it.  

I love how it turned out even though it was out of my comfort zone.


Upon finishing this quilt it was shipped to my partner in Missouri.
