One last finsh for March

So, last we spoke I was knee deep in a sewing blitz...
I got her finished just in time to give to Ruby on her last day of work.
I even hand stitched the binding.
I quilted the cream borders with feathers. The printed centers with swirls.
The espresso sashing, I quilted with a back and forth design.
I tossed her in the washer and dryer before I gifted it.
So these texture shots were taken at about ten o'clock at night...
With my not-so-fabulous dining room lighting.
I found this darling mint chocolate polka dot for $4/yd on clearance.
I took a few left over scraps and created a label for the bottom corner.
Ruby loved it.
And I loved giving her a gift from my heart.
 
Things have been quiet on my blog...
but there has been good reason:
Spring has finally returned!
 
Have a wonderful night everyone!
