The challenge was to make a monochromatic quilt. We informed our partners of colors we liked, and I mentioned taupe as a favorite for me. This is perfect.
My partner hand-dyed the fabrics (they started out as a Kona white) using walnuts! She got the different shadings from leaving the fabric in longer to get deeper degrees of colors. Amazing.
She passed on some fabrics bits as well and I will have to decide on the perfect use for them, don't you think?
And in the package, she included some steampunk fabrics and a big old hunk of Hershey's chocolate. I do believe my husband, bless him, was most impressed with the size of that chocolate bar.
Meanwhile, I'm still waiting confirmation that the mini I sent to her has arrived, so I can't post it here yet. I can post a wee peek though. It's what I made up with that stack of AccuQuilt GO! cut triangles I showed a few weeks back.
I can only hope she enjoys the quilt I sent her as much as I love the one she sent me!
