City Crafter Challenge Blog Week 164 ~ Cottage Quilt

This week at City Crafter Challenge Blog, our lovely host Charlene picked this photo 


and the challenge is

Cottage Quilt

Make a project with a quilt pattern AND use the colors in the inspiration photo too

Here's my take.....


actually it doesn't look bad this way too.... LOL


as you can see, I am trying hard to keep my card "flat" these days, instead of using a "real" button like I used to, I am using a die cut button instead.



Please hop over to join in the fun




See what I am doing next?


Yes, loading my car.....

driving my daughter back to collage for her RA duty....

Yes, a full car load....

why collage girls have some much things to bring?

???

will be back soon!
