Oh Mr. Postman!

I couldn't be more excited about winning this LARGE box of "Family Tree" scraps from Deb Strain's (for Moda) recent Blog Giveaway at debstrain.blogspot.com.


Imagine my excitement when I opened the box and walaaaa!

"These are a few of my favorite things!" 

Red birds!


Paisley...


and more birds!  


I just couldn't contain myself.  Within minutes I had the fabric out of the box and sorted on the floor!


DH just shaking his head at me {wink}...

I even took a few minutes to sketch down a pillow design using the scraps - complete with quilting ideas!


Now I just need a few minutes of machine time to create!  Woohoo I can't wait!

No sewing today though ... It's off to work I go...  I normally work from home but I'm trekking to campus for some important meetings today...  (This is what pays the mortgage ;)

Thanks Deb Strain for the fantastic giveaway!

Have a great day all!

Hugs,
Karen

      Loads of fun Connie! Can't wait to get started on those scraps. One of your famous strip quilts would look beautiful out of these fabrics and perfect fall colors! Thanks for stopping by...

    Just received a cheque for $500.

    Sometimes people don't believe me when I tell them about how much you can earn by taking paid surveys online...

    So I show them a video of myself actually getting paid $500 for doing paid surveys to set the record straight.
