Another lovely feature!

For the Love of Solids [a modern swap] - wall quilt - complete.

This is the mini quilt I made for my secret partner For The Love of Solids [a modern swap], Round 1. Thank you to Megan and Heather who are featuring it on Quilt Story today - they called it awesome, I am so flattered.

My week has been a bit shattered by my youngest breaking his upper arm snowboarding (foiled by an edge while doing some wonderful trick or other - he is an excellent boarder). He is going to be fine and surgery was happily avoided at the last minute but mothering through these incidents is stressful and exhausting. Things will be back to normal soon.

Best,

Leanne

    Sorry to hear about your son. We've been fortunate thus far to avoid any serious injuries with my boys. I hope that your son recovers fully and quickly.

    Good for you! I adore this project too. Boarding battle wounds will certainly be fun to share among his friends, thankfully no surgery :)
