A Christmas surprise

Imagine my delighted surprise when I read the following blog post at the blog, Fibermania earlier today.
I'm to be gifted this wonderfully colourful and unique art quilt by one of my favourite artists, Melody Johnson. A gift from an anonymous reader.
I do love any nature motif and anyone who knows me knows how much I love trees. Polka dots are also a favourite as well as the addition of hand stitching. I always like to add it to my pieces.

I am quite simply astounded. I wonder if I'll ever know who. Sometimes the world does seem to be a wonderful place. This piece will make me happy every time I look at it. It will be treasured.
