Aren't blog friends just the best? I'll explain why in a minute. First let me tell you that the other day I was reading Darlene's blog when I saw she and Kathy had decided to have a sew-along making little quilts from the Simply Charming book by Tara Lynn Darr. I left a comment saying it sounded like lots of fun but since I didn't have the book, I'd just enjoy watching their progress instead.
About the same time, I won a giveaway on Debra's blog. She hadn't posted what the prize would be...just that it would be something quilty! Works for me! LOL
Fast forward to today, when I go out to get the mail. There's a package from Debra. I open it up and see this book, and I'm thinking...it looks familiar...it looks like the book Darlene posted about. So I checked and it was. When I thanked Debra and mentioned this coincidence to her, she told me she had seen my comment,and decided to order a book for me when she ordered a copy for herself! Isn't that just the sweetest thing? Thank you so much Debra! You really did make my day! So now I'll be sewing along making these sweet little quilts and hopefully using up more of my scraps. Life is so good! :0)

That had to brighten up this very snowy cold day for you.
Don't you just love goodies in the mail??? Can't wait to see which one you make first??? Are you all doing the same one each time--or just picking one and doing it???
Hugs, di and miss gracie

I think I am going join you for the Whimsy Sew along thingy. I just checked my stash and I have a charm pack to use AND a background fabric to use. Yay! Don't even need to go and get anything. Right now I am finishing up the Winter Block Exchange I am involved in and then I will have to catch up with the rest of you.
