Mirage from Sew 2 be happy arranged a ladies crafty morning yesterday at her place. I got to meet Laila from Time for tea and Alia from Coffeebean’s Dailies.
These ladies are crafty they all brought projects that they were currently working on which all happened to be quilts! I on the other hand went with nothing lol i just didnt have the time to sew anything and well i couldnt take a tissue box cover could i?
Oh my those quilts are beautiful, the thought and details that goes into making one is no joke.
However, the satisfaction of actually completing it and giving it as a gift is precious. What makes it so special is the fact that it was handmade (of course!) and the sewist had you (the one receiving the quilt) in mind while making it. Have a look at this gorgeous quilt which was made by Mirage’s sister for her niece.
I took my camera with me but with all the talk, tea and laughs forgot to take pics so promise will do next time.
I took Hadeel along with me to meet thier kids and she had a great time! I heard all about it on the way back home.
I really had a lovely morning and it was a pleasure meeting these lovely crafty mamas. Thank you ladies for being such an inspiration and i cant wait for our next meet up.
oh the pleasure was all mine, I had so much fun. i did not get much binding done with all the chatter, LOL, so I will have to work on multitasking for the next meet-up
You should bring along the tissue box cover, i have never made one and I would have learned something new.
Off to finish that binding … c u soon.
The quilt is lovely, and you should have brought the tissue box cover – it’s not something that you see often.
It was such a pleasure for me as well Mayya! I can’t wait to see your tissue box cover as I too have never made one and would love to learn how! However, it was the first and may the next one be whatever it is we want out of it!!
