Cake & Coffee with friends

I was lucky enough to spend some time with some crafty friends - Mandy from CraftMad (papercrafts) and Cynthia from Cynthia's Ark (quilting) on Friday, 12th December

the best of both worlds I think, mixing my two hobbies with two great friends :)
LtoR:  Mandy, Cynthia, Cathy (me)

December is my final swap with QBSA.  It seems rather fitting that my last swap was with my first partner, SueB, who also happens to be the group's founder :)
I made two blocks, as I wasn't perfectly happy with the first one.

Antique Tile Block #1 for SueB
Antique Tile Block #2 for SueB

Also, I felt I had to make up for my very first block which I trimmed to 12" (not realising it was supposed to be 12 1/2" )  but Sue set me straight.  I certainly think my sewing has improved since then.
First QBSA block made in 2010 - my very first block swap ever!

My final block from Sue - a perfect Rainbow Starflower block and the most gorgeous handmade card  :)
