It was nice weather and a tie game. The Dutch champion won with 2-1 in the last inning.

I made two mini quilts for the Alzheimer Art Guilt Initiative and I sent them by post. One of the quilts is somewhere between The Netherlands and the United States.
It is no problem. I promished to send another one. I love quilting shells, so I decided to combine some practice with my promish.
I did not quilt this time shells on purple cotton but I tried cotton with the color of sand at out North Sea beaches. I used three multi colors polyester thread with the colors of shells. The binding is cotton with the same color as one of the shades of the multicolors.

Tomorrow it is on the way to the United States.

visiting from Sew Many ways. I love this. I love the missing one too. It is weird how things go missing even when tracked. Such a shame after all the work you do.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI hope this one makes it! What a lovely memory. Great quilting as usual:)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI love when our memories are tied to a quilt as you have so beautifully done!!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat is a shame your first quilt is lost. However, your second one is such a delight with all the memories quilted in there. This one had better not get lost, too!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHope the missing quilt turns up at some point but what a great second piece you've made! :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThat really is a shame that your quilt went missing! Your shell quilt is beautiful both in looks and sentiment. What a lovely thought, I am sure it would do your grandma proud!
