entirely new
i’ve recently signed up with a ‘mini-quilt’ swap group on flickr, and i am having such fun with it. i sent my first swap package off about a week ago, and now that my swap partner has received it i feel i can post pictures.
what i am most excited about is that i designed this little quilt from scratch. i’d never done that before! the patching was pretty straightforward, and nothing to get too excited about, but i think the stitcheries are a bit special.
i hope my swap partner, two cheese please, enjoys owning it as much as i enjoyed designing and making it!
love, essie xoxo

Hi!
I found your blog through a mutual friend of ours - and after reading I wanted to remark on how simply beautiful it is. I’m somewhat of a crafter myself, but the things you do blow me away (you make my fingers itch to take up quilting!). Everything from the photography of your pieces, to the pieces themselves are amazing and inspiring to me. Congratulations on putting such a wonderful little piece of heaven together - and thankyou for sharing it
