Tomorrow the new cafe is open for a sneak peek. I finished the window display yesterday.
In the afternoon I picked up the quilt I made for the cafe. The pattern is called "Cakewalk" by Lori Holt. I nearly burst into tears when I saw the wonderful quilting my quilter/friend, Mary, did on it.
The pictures absolutely do not give this quilt justice. It has been dark and grey in Kalamazoo and the pictures reflect it.
Because Nancy specializes in cupcakes, I put three blocks in with cupcakes on cakestands. I then embroidered a dome around them and put a button on for a handle. I love how it turned out.
This quilt ranks number one in fun for me. I loved every minute of this process. From the "baking" to picking out the right cakestand to decorating the cupcakes. I think another one of these quilts may be in my future. Thank you Lori! You made my quilting, creative day!
I'll be back with more pictures over the next few days. Don't forget that Monday is the day of my monthly giveaway!
Fabrics: Flower Sugar and a bit of other brights from my stash
