Happy Monday, friends! I had a wonderful weekend with family, celebrating my son's birthday that is this week. It's been a while since we were all together so it was a fun time.
I told you last week about a package waiting for me on my porch one day. A couple of days later, there was another one! Yes, two packages in one week. I can't tell you how excited I was. Both of them contained fabric, so how could I not be excited? I entered two different fabric giveaways and won one of them. The one I won was hosted by Maureen from
Maureen Cracknell Handmade. One of her sponsors,
Moona Fabrics, was giving away some of Anna Maria Horner's Hugs and Kisses fabric from her Loulouthi collection. This is what I won.
Isn't it just gorgeous? It's so pretty to look at, I don't know if I can cut it! I have some ideas about what to do with it, but nothing has been decided yet. I think I need to just enjoy the cheerful colors for a little longer!
The second box of fabric came from my long time bloggy buddy, Janet, from
The Empty Nest. Janet had a giveaway on her blog for a gift certificate from a fabric shop. I didn't win, but Janet chose three lucky ladies to receive some fabric from her personal stash. I was thrilled that I was one of the three. If you have seen anything she sews, you will understand my excitement! There was beautiful decorator fabrics fun juvenile prints, and a princess fabric that screamed Shylee's (my granddaughter) name when I saw it.
Doesn't that just make you want to be a little girl again? Shylee loved it and thought it was a blanket! I'll have to figure out something extra special to make her.
I have to say, that was a good week! I will be sure to share with you whatever these beautiful fabrics turn out to be!
What have you been excited about lately?
