Potholders I Sent Rebecka

Well I sent off my potholders without taking a picture before I packaged them up. Sometimes I just don't think my head is attached, so I borrowed Rebecka's picture. She had taken a photo of her dining room when we were trying to decide colors for one another and can you believe we have the same antique table, mine is closed up in my breakfast area and hers is open. She had her first tulip on her table so I put it on the recipe card, it had the most beautiful colors in it.

We don't leave until Friday or Saturday this week for our vacation, just couldn't resist the pictures below.

Beautiful Potholders Arrived and Just A Few Pictures

I have to say I love these potholders. Rebecka @ http://rebecka-rasmataz.blogspot.com/ sews beautifully and just click on the picture to view the quilting on them, hope you can see all the work she put into each one. The recipe she sent is for a coffee cake that will be cooked soon. A few more pounds added, but it sure does look worth it.

I still can't show you the potholders sent her way, because I know she hasn't received them. Rebecka had my name once before on a purse swap and to this day it still travels with me with my sewing projects tucked inside and I finally get to make her something, so exciting. When I got into this swap, I took a look at my potholders (think they might of been given to me for wedding gifts 35 years ago), you wouldn't believe the way they look. Here the sewing machine runs all the time and have never made any potholders. Now I'm hooked. What a great gift to give a special friend with a favorite recipe.

I haven't been doing a great job with taking pictures at our sewing bee meetings. Here are two pictures of some very talented ladies quilt tops they finished last Thursday. All I can say, if you don't belong to a group of ladies getting together, sewing and having lots of laughter, you just don't know what your missing.
