I have had quite a few waiting incidents lately, and still have a few in the waiting cue. However - a couple of my "waits" are over and with wonderful results.
One of these had to do with the Doll Quilt Swap I am in. I started in March and my first quilt swap partner had sent me a couple of messages letting me know that she would be late in sending my quilt.
So yesterday I got home and received my March Doll Quilt YA! The theme for the month was "Animals" I sent her a hand embroidered Cat in a hat box surrounded by 1930 repo fabric. This is what I sent her.
And yesterday I got this adorable Doggie quilt.
With a Bone Label.
So yes good things come to those who wait. :0).
The second "Good things come to those who wait"....
I was part of a swap called "Dreaming of Spring" mini quilt swap hosted by Michelle over at the Quilting Gallery. Well my quilt swap partner on that is located in Austria.
This is the little quilt I sent.
I sent the quilt out by the deadline on May 13 but had never heard anything from the recipient. So last night I sent her an email to see if she ever received it. Well I got an email this morning saying she had received it - "loved it and had taken it to her exhibition at the Stadtmuseum Traiskirchen and it got a nice place". Okay so the translation is a little rough and I didn't know what that was or what it meant. But now after digging - The Stadtmuseum Traiskirchen is a Museum. It is run by volunteers but from the sounds of it she put my little quilt into an exhibit that she has at the Museum. WOW!
So 2 good results from waiting!
I'm having a great day!
