My mailbox has been making me oh so happy this week. It's like Christmas has come a bit early here at my place! I have recently won a couple of giveaways and just generally experienced the generosity of this crafting bloggy world. You are all so nice and so giving!! I'll start with a beautiful bit of fabric that I won over at Bee Square Fabric. I love how lively this wonderful Garden Pop is! Thank you Diane!!
The other day, I had a bit of an email back and forth with Elizabeth from Oh, Fransson! about our absolute adoration of Erin Michaels, new line Lush (have you SEEN it?!? If not - seriously, check it out), which led to my mentioning that I also love her first line, Uptown. Elizabeth then offered to send me some scraps of the line. Yes, please!! Thank you Elizabeth! Oh my goodness just take a peek:
Some if this is pretty certain to end up in the aqua & red mini quilt I'm going to make for Katie!
Next up, something I've been wanting for a while! I won a Robert Kaufman Kona Cotton Sample Card from True Up. I'm certain to reference it endlessly and I'm so happy to now be able to order solids online. I often need to SEE solids to match them to various patterned fabrics, so it's a thrill to have this. Thank you Kim!
And last, but certainly ANYTHING BUT least, I won a giveaway from Dallas over at For The Journey. Would you please feast your eyes on this amazingly generous quantity of vintage sheets?!?
Thank you Dallas!! I am in love with so many of them and I just can't wait to tackle making them into a beautiful quilt. I'm going to love the challenge of mixing and matching all of these in with new fabrics as well. What fun!! Here's a few of my favorites:
Now I need to really get cracking on a number of Christmas gifts... I just finished up on a freelance job so I'm beyond excited to now have lots of time to sew sew sew and tend to this here little blog.
Hope that you are all starting to feel the holiday spirit. I certainly am! With a community as generous as all of you, how could I not?!?
