A Day at the Beach

I got picked to be the theme picker for Swap Til You Drop this month. I picked the theme "Summer Lovin'" and couldn't not sign up! :) My partner, abxkris (another Kristin/Kristen!), loves going to the beach among other things, so I made her a little bit of the beach to remember when winter inevitably comes.

I love the label since I had some Michael Miller monkeys that also seemed really summery. Kristin also mentioned she loves swimming with her kids.

I also sent some spices from Penzey's Spices. I love their salad dressing mixes. They're good by themselves with olive oil on just about everything or made into dressing. I'm especially in love with their Buttermilk Ranch and Salsa Salad Dressing.

    ALL of your quilts are so cute. My boyfriend told me I should make more quilts like yours. He is a huge fan of the Quail quilt :)
