  3. Kimmie, this quilt has been a labor of love for you, and it shows. OMG! Your stitches are so tiny and perfect. I've got to run over to IHannah's website. Something is telling me that it's chock full of inspiration! Hugs, Terri xoxo

  4. Your quilt looks so beautiful, but so fragile (just like what it is representing I guess) I love the soft muted colours, and every stitch seems to be like a little breath that gives the quilt its "life" and creates the little ripples. It is so special, well done. xx
