Finish It Up Friday

I have a finish today.  
I am part of the Bitchesgetstitches swap.  
I showed you the trivet I made for that swap already.  

I decided to make a mini quilt for my partner.  
She didn't have much put in her Instagram feed for ideas so 
I just decided to make something I would love to receive.  
What else do you do right?  I finished the binding last night (after all the drama).  
So here is the mini quilt for my partner.  





I am really thrilled with how it turned out.  I did my own quilting.  
The geese were paper pieced from a pattern my friend Kelly has on Craftsy.  

You can see the stitchery better in this photo.  
I used metallic thread which makes the stitches look a little choppier but he is so sparkly!


This is the top all finished before I quilted it.



I am linking up to Crazy Mom Quilts Finish It Up Friday post too.

What do you think of this?  Would you be happy to receive it as a mini quilt for your wall?
