Four Seasons Quilt Swap - Spring Mini Quilt by Nikki
I based this on a photo I found in a vintage (60's-70's) craft book. I designed it myself, drew it out on freezer paper, ironed it to the fabric pieces and then ironed fusible web to the back. I then ironed everything onto the background fabric and machine quilted it in place. It's embellished with beads, buttons, two ladybugs and three butterflies. It was lots of fun-- I hope the recipient enjoys it! blogged here: nkdolin.blogspot.com

I love the fabric choices. You can definitely see the 60s-70s paper cut illustration style in your design. Cheerful and very colorful! :-)
