I would like to share with you my last project for Jo's Little Women' Club. It is a small quilt that became therapeutic for me. You could almost say, it was a method for mourning a dear friend.
You see, I started this project the day my friend Cheryl left the bonds of earth. Yes, on that very day! So in her honour, I have named it Stone Patches.
The pattern suggested that I hand embroidered 4 (four) of the ladies, but I chose to high-lite only one! Her name is Cheryl! ;o)
It's a cute little project! Scrappy!
I even used a couple of hour glass squares from a previous project! Yea, scrappy!
I must admit, I am enjoying working on these small quilts. They make gorgeous accent pieces in a room.
I have picked a winner from the post Things that make you go Hawwwww! Thank you to all those who posted. I enjoyed reading your entries.
The Winner is......... drum roll please...........!
Kimberly of numerous blogs! So I did a inimimimanimo and picked her blog My brown bag Studio to link too! ;o) Kimberly, please e-mail me with your mailing address so that I can get the hand made notion holder out to you.
Thank you so much for stopping by! Cheers!

Hahahaha -- I kept looking at "inimimimanimo" trying to figure out what the heck it was! NOW I get it LOL! Love your sweet little quilt!

Lovely Little Jo quilt. It is a nice rememberance quilt and love the name you gave it. I do believe that 'sewing mends the soul'.
What a beautiful piece. I have been stitching vintage illustrations and making them into mini quilts. They are fun and quick.

What a wonderful way to remember your friend by, Carole. How special.
One can never have too many mini quilts. The one you made for me in a swap two Christmases ago always takes center stage in my studio. It's my absolute fav!
So sweet. Little quilts are fun to make and display around the house.
What a beautiful quilt with such special heartfelt stitches. Love it.

What a lovely way to remember a friend.
Carole- It's absolutely gorgeous and what a nice tribute and gracious way of honoring your friendship with Cheryl. It's seems unlikely that it will be a month since she's passed. She would smile at your finish.
