Aren't these some gorgeous flowers my wonderful husband game me?
It's been a wonderful day so far, filled with hugs, and phone calls & cards from loved ones :*D
I even got a video message from two of our Grands in North Carolina... what a treat!
Isn't modern technology an amazing thing? I would have loved to send such a message to my grandmother when I was small :*)
When my Mom was visiting, she and Darryll gave me their gift to me...
The Tin Man!!! Isn't this just the cutest thing? There's a story behind this that I need to share with you someday :*) My sweet hubby told me to order a couple of fabric cutting dies and he's taking me out to dinner out at Olive Garden tonight! Whoohoo!!!!!
Am I a blessed girl or what ??? =^..^=
But of course, the day is not all about me.... As promised, I'm celebrating with a GIVEAWAY!!!
The new Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks Vol #6 !!!! |
I'm also going to throw in this cute Harvest pattern, because somehow I ended up with 2 of these too :*) It's great for 2-1/2" strips and jelly rolls! I've also seen it with a black background and it's gorgeous!!!
