I never forget these two birthdays and I always remember Dad on this day. These cards are called Whim (from the Splendid Sampler series) and finish at 6 ½” x 6 ½”.

On Thekla’s card I see fabric I’ve used many times before – some from a baby quilt I made (the lion), some from a package of fat quarters Kathryn gave me, (the pink tie-dye) and some from a project I made for Madison (the bright stripes). Seeing these fabrics again is like a gift to myself!

Regan’s card also holds a lot of memories in the fabric – some from Deloise (cherries), some from a quilt I made for Madison (multi-coloured stars), and some of my favourite fabric collection (green swirls).

I was able to use a couple of the fancy quilting stitches my machine does so well.
