What a fantabulous birthday day for me! A huge thank you to my family and friends and blogfriends, too! I just felt all the love and kindness and attention that a girl could want for her birthday day!
Before the day had really even started, breakfast arrived in my dear husband's hands! Well done, sir!
Even when I was only half beautificated for the day, my dear friend arrived with the above lovely Sunkissed fabric for a quilt we had been oggling online this week! Ooooh, super excited!!!!!!
And then, after dropping kids to school and to Grandma's house, another dear friend took me to Vancouver for the day to The Cloth Shop! Seriously, every cool fabric I've seen on the quilting blogs, more quilting books than I knew existed, and the nicest shop owner ever! Wow, it was a lot of eye candy... so much that I had to go back to the beginning (the front door) three separate times to get my mind to focus and stop straying to new and prettier things and just actually take any of it in! Such fun!
And check what she gave me?!?!?! I had been eyeing this book for weeks and had, just the night before my birthday, added it to my Amazon wishlist! LOVE IT!!!! And then she even spoiled me further with this amazing roll of eight FQs of beautiful, lovely, oh-so-pretty fabrics to play with while working my way through the patterns in the book!!!
And so today... I am playing quilting! Hooray for Saturdays at home!
