someone made this for ME...rachel!!!
this someone just happens to be the amazingly talented esther.
{for our four seasons quilt swap.}
i literally cried when i opened it.
seriously.
no one has EVER made a quilt specifically for me. EVER.
i was truly touched. and i still am.
back in november we picked our preferences:
i chose red & brown as my colors.
i chose fall as my season.
and i chose a wall quilt.
i'd say esther completely nailed it!!!
wouldn't yall???
her attention to detail is out of this world.
i ♥ everything about this little quilt.
{and the goodies that came with it!!!}
thank you, thank you, thank you esther!!!
i feel like such a lucky gal!!!
i will cherish it forever.
and ever.
promise.
p.s. thank yall for all the "get well" wishes.
yall make my heart happy.

Wow, that quilt is gorgeous! Those Aussie girls can quilt, let me tell you! I was in a couple swaps where I was the recipient of a small quilt from Australia and they were both incredible quilts. You deserve it Rachel! I am glad you got such a nice quilt. You have never had anyone make you a quilt? Is this your first swap?
Wow is right! That is so beautiful. Esther is very talented. Lucky you! Get well soon.
Oh lucky, lucky you! When I saw that quilt on flickr it made me wish that my color choice was red. I'm still waiting for my 4sqs5 quilt to arrive. Oh, the anticipation!
WOW! that is absoultely stunning! you are one very lucky recipient! Ester, what an amazing quilt!!
enjoy Rachel!!!
Such an incredible quilt! Esther is amazing. You lucky girl. I can tell you that double dipped cherry ripes are just the thing for sick people (when they feel like eating again that is). Hope you are feeling better.
Happy Stitching...Ann :)
What a terrific swap quilt! You are right it is perfect! You are quite lucky!
GORGEOUS! It would be very happy living in my house. :o) What a fun swap.
awesome!! you are lucky!! have a nice day, hopefully you are feeling better. I am sad to say no quilting for me again today, yesterday was groceries, and today I am taking my little men on a much needed playdate, maybe when I get home!!
Wow - that is a gorgeous quilt! Lucky lucky you!
I'd say Esther went WAY beyond what most of us hope to get in a swap. I'm very happy for you that you got something this lovely, Rachel. Hope you are feeling somewhat better today.
as you would say - oh emm gee! your doll quilt is absolutely gorgeous! wowie! i am literally drooling on my keyboard...☺
Wow that is stunning. Congratulations. I would have cried too.
That is GORG! I am in love with it too.
You are a lucky lady... that is one gorgeous quilt. Gratz hon!
I must pass this cute tidbit onto you. I had just started reading your latest post, while my little one (1 year old) was playing. he likes to push the buttons on the DVD player, and we have our computer hooked up to for the surround sound. well! he pushed the right button, and had it turned on and switched over to the computer, and your music started playing and he started laughing and clapping his hands!!! haha.
that quilt is amazing!
I'm speechless! I opened your page and saw that quilt and could NOT believe it. I want this! It is so so so darling. Is it an original design. I can't believe how cute it is. You totally won out. How nice. I'm super jealous.
Wow - that is beautiful! You are lucky!
That quilt is fantastic. Aren't bloggers the greatest. That is one quilt that would stay up all the time.
What an absolutely awesome quilt. I'd be proud to hang that anywhere, any time of the year! It is beautiful and beautifully done!
Hope your'e feeling better.

It's so beautiful Rachel...I'm so happy for you...and hope you and your family get better soon!
that is one beautiful and amazing quilt!!! i would be jumping for joy if i received that, too. i love red and brown together.
What a wonderful gift! It's a beautiful quilt, and a wonderful swap 'get' ~ but the extra touch of putting your name on the label is SUPER special!
I'm very happy for you, you really deserve such wonderful gifties in your mailbox!

I love your tree quilt! I am not always into that style, but I love the applique tree emerging from the pieced background.
