Surprise

I was feeling a bit down - had just seen my passport photos - even hardened criminals would run a mile if they saw me coming...sigh.  But then I came home to the most delightful email from Mary - she sent me photos of her version of my quilt "Freewheeling" which was in an AP&Q some time back.  This is part of what she wrote:

" I changed it by adding a border by Moda Fabrics from the Origins collection.  I loved that black!  I made my pinwheels red.  I made it for my sister-in-law’s niece who is legally blind and can only see red, white and black.  It was her Christmas present.  That young lady is the young blond in the picture.  I am the lady with the dark hair.  I showed the back of the quilt which was made from Mark Lipinski’s Krakow collection because it was white, black and  red.  I hope you enjoy the photos and it was a lot of fun making  this quilt.  I probably will make this quilt again.   I hope I will  see more of your patterns in future issues of AP&Q."

Here are her photos - doesn't her version look great? Thank you so much Mary for sharing!!!
