Bloom

Bloom (Kim Brackett) from the book Scrap-Basket Beauties

At the Texada Retreat in November of 2017 I was in second place after the strip poker game. At the end of the game the woman who won (Gail Moyles) picked up all the strips and threw them down on my workstation. I was thrilled to accept them! The deal (or downside) of winning the strips was that you were supposed to finish a flimsy for the next Texada Retreat. I managed to accomplish that.

When it came time to find a quilt for Madison’s graduation I had a choice of two. Based on the colours her Mum suggested it was narrowed down to just this one.

Because it was a graduation gift I made a more intricate label than usual.

I think she likes it. I hope she gets as much use from it as she does from that blankie (on the end of her bed) that I made for her when she was born.
