Tomorrow is the posting day for the DSDQ swap round 2. Once again there are some lovely mini quilts in the flickr group.
This is the mini that I have posted off to my swap partner. She mentioned she liked piecing so I have done a spider web block using the tutorial at Sew Mama Sew by Elizabeth Hartman.
I just sewed diagonally through the centre "web" and did simple echo quilting and sewing around the blocks with a blue variegated Guterman thread.
And I think I used nearly every blue DS fabric that I had here.
The "extra" item I am sending is a Zakka style pincushion using some linen paired with a couple of other DS fabrics.
Hopefully this wont take as long to get to her as my previous package to a swap partner!
Linking to Sew Modern Monday at Canoe Ridge Creations, Fabric Tuesday at Quiltstory, and Little Quilt Monday with Elizabeth at Pieceful Iife.

that's lovely!
I love your mini! Can't see any partner not being thrilled to get a parcel like that!!
Your mini is beautiful! That is definitely a swap I would love to be a part of when I have a little more time. Sounds fun!
Very nice, and wishing this one a swift journey!
Beautiful mini! Lucky swap partner :)
Wonderful mini! Love the pin cushion too....she is going to be very happy!
Looks great! Travel blessings to your mini! ;-)
I love it! Beautiful.
Popped over from Fairy Face to support another Aussie blogger! Your mini is lovely! I made a similar one (but I think my technique was different!) for another swap earlier in the year! I'm sure your partner will love it!
