At the beginning of the year I joined the Swap for all Seasons mini fabric collage swap.
The idea was to make a mini fabric collage 5" x 7" in a style and colour that you knew your partner would like from the information given to you . My partner was Angela from Pages by the Sea. I found that her favourite colours were blues and greens, sea colours being her favourites. Angela also liked lace, beads, ribbons buttons and has a love of birds and animals.
So armed with all this information I collected all the necessary from my stash.
I then set about playing with all the various bits and bobs until a layout I was happy with what evolved. This is the first one that I came up with but having loads of bits left over I started playing around with another blank canvas and made also made the one below.

absolutely stunning....Love it.
Ohh, lucky, lucky Angela! I see you've got over your phobia of leaving the ends of cotton hanging - lol.
Mrs. A., you're delightful having the sense to take information from a person such as favorite colors and likes of this or that and come up with a fabulous design as you've done here. It is just gorgeous. No wonder Angela can't decide which she likes best - it's wonderful work! I bet she's glad you sent both! :-)
They are both lovely! Lucky Angela!
