ROBIN SWEET'S CHATELAINE




We are having a chatelaine swap in the Marie Antoinette Mail Art Group, and my partner is Robin Sweet. I asked Robin what color she would want and she said earth tones, so this is what I made her. She loves crazy quilting, so I decided to try that and then I used a vintage doily with roses on it. I made the roses from ribbons and put a vintage rhinestone pin on it. It also has a vintage button on the pocket. I hope she likes it.

That is just absolutely stunning!!! I adore the cream with the gold, brown and tan. All the little jeweled accents really make it sparkle! I think your partner will love it. :) Theresa
