Recebi o meu quilt do four seasons swap, na sexta feira. A minha parceira, Valerie, não tem blog mas escreveu-me e sei algumas coisas simpáticas ácerca dela: é mãe de um rapazinho de dois anos, pianista em part-time e, como não podia deixar de ser, quilter. Tudo neste quilt foi surpresa para mim. A Margaret, coordenadora do swap pediu a todas as participantes que mencionassem o que gostariam e não gostariam de ver no seu quilt para assim haver uma maior possibilidade de gostarmos do que iriamos receber. Como gosto mesmo de ser surpreendida fui omissa neste ponto. E gosto muito do quilt que a Valerie me fez. Patchwork à máquina com aplicações. Gosto das cores e este mochinho no canto inferior direito é delicioso. Obrigada Valerie. O quilt que fiz para o swap está a caminho dos USA e num próximo post mostrá-lo-ei.
I received the quilt from my partner on Friday. My partner, Valerie, has no blog but she wrote me and I know three nice things about her: she is a mom of a two year-old boy, a part time pianist and of course she is a quilter!
Everything about this quilt was a surprise for me. Margaret, the swap coordinator, asked the participants about their likes and dislikes. That way it should be easier for each one of us to make a quilt that would please our partner. I love surprises so I didn´t make any observation about what should be done in my quilt.
I love the quilt Valerie sent me. It is machine pieced with some appliqué. The colors are great and the little blue owl she appliquéd on the bottom right corner is so cute. Thanks Valerie.
The quilt I made for this swap is on its way to the USA. I'll show it to you soon.

Isto dos swap's traz um enriquecimento cultural inigualável e uma capacidade de desprendimento invejável.
