Thanks for all the Quilty Fabric

I won four fat quarters from Allison at in the Sew Mama Sew Christmas Giveaway. I really admired the pink flowers on the aqua background in the picture on her blog and that is what stuck in my mind and what I thought I won. So I was surprised and pleased that I won 3 other fat quarters which at least one if not all by Urban Chiks. Thanks Allison for your generousity.

My lovely bloggy friend Marguerite from England surprised me with a big piece of strawberry fairy fabric mix from the flower fairies series. It was delightful to come home after a month away and find this thoughtful gift and a lovely felt heart. Thanks so much Marg - get well soon.


I am making 2 pink blocks for Dana's quilts to promote breast cancer awareness. Fabric strips from from my fabric swap partners will go into one block and a large pink flower and pink ribbons will go into the other block.


Absolutely lovely fabric "scraps" were sent to me by 8 lovely ladies in Flossie's Pork Chop Swap and I want to use some for some string blocks and some to make a cover for my sewing machine.

Really am so very grateful for the internet quilting community of generous women and men.

PS the forsythia in the photo was picked from my garden this morning!!!
