Birthday Swap

Sarah and my birthdays are in May, and we always make something for each other. On Thursday night we swap our gifts. I did this center 'down in the garden' block for her. there was a lot of work in this block.

This is a close up pic.

look what Sarah made for me a block keeper book. I have been hinting for one for some time now.

I just love the butterfly and my initials.

I also got a bag to keep my block keep book in. The fabric is Portabello Market by 3 Sisters:
Thank you so much Sarah just love it. I am all ready using it
I have a block of the month, that I started 2 years ago so I have decided it is time to get it finished.
