This week our cards are going to Karin and her family in California. She is not doing well and we were asked to make Thinking of you or Praying for you cards as get well cards may not be appropriate at this time. Also, we were asked to use a quilt theme.
LOL okay, the scallops didn't work exactly like I thought they would, hope this still looks enough like a quilt! The flowers at the bottom are snipped off of the bouquet and I layered them. I thought the sentiment was nice since quilts keep you warm
Thanks for taking a peek!

This is beautiful Kathleen, I knew it was a Teapot Tuesday quilt even before I read the title of your gorgeous creation. I love your layout and all the punches and dies you have used. Perfect (as always)!!

Beautiful, Kathleen!! This looks like our inspiration quilt! The scalloped squares are perfect for a quilt, you should have seen me messing with the square swatches, trying to get them to fit in a reasonable way, I should have done like you did! This may only be sized for a doll, but it's still made with love as any other quilt is!
I think the scallops worked beautifully. I love your card. It's such soft pretty pastel colors. Very feminine. I'm praying Karin comes out of her coma and to see the love meant in each card she receives.

I'm speechless! As I sit here and look at these cards I'm just crying! I am just so touched by the kindness you have shown in making a card for my cousin Karin!
