I am doing cartwheels! ( not really, *if* I could do  cart wheels, I would be doing them!) I won a gift certificate to

www.fatquartershop.com

Now my problem is deciding which of the 50 or sew charm packs, fat quarters, jelly rolls and layer cakes that I am drooling over to order! I have visited them 3 times this morning and each time, instead of narrowing down the choices, I add another idea to my list.  I will figure it out soon and let you know!

Thank you SEW very much Cyndi! I will enjoy my fabric immensely!

I decided that I would join some other bloggers on a Photo scavenger hunt for the month of April. I took a few pictures but didn't quite make the deadline. Yesterday, I enlisted the help of the kidlets and we went on the photo scavenger hunt in the rain! They came up with some great ideas and we had a blast! Here is what we came up with:

Hop aboard the Christmas train

 I love sales and I especially love 75% off sales! I found the panels for these aprons after Christmas a few years ago.
and I put them away.
and I forgot I had them.

 

*then* I came across them the other day whilst "bolting" my fabric. I, of course, decided *not* to follow the directions - I don't like hemming raw edges, so I made it reversible. I put a bigger pocket on the plaid side and played around with the topstitching. I think it's much more fun to have two aprons in one! For the next one, I plan on using AbbyDoo's machine- she has all sorts of fancy schmancy stitches to use. :0) I *can't* teach her to use them if I don't play with them first, right?

I'm linking up to Christmas Through the year!

Today I am celebrating my birthday (still) by taking mySweetMommie out for lunch! and of course stopping at all the quilt shops on the route. The route had a few detours to get to the quilt shoppes- i got a new pen to mark my quilt top and some fat quarters!
