Don't forget the giveaway!!!

Make sure you leave a comment about the giveaway to be entered. There are other ways to get extra entries so be sure to check out the previous post.

I have been lucky enough to win 2, yes 2, blog giveaways in the last week. The first was a great little mug mat from Barb over at So How Was Your Day?. Thanks so much Barb! It arrived on Saturday! Be sure and check out Barb's blog. I am sure you will find some interesting things there!

The second win I had was from Pat Sloan's blog. I haven't received the prize yet so I don't know what it is. I will be sure and let you know when it arrives and what it is. I am sure it will be a great surprise.

Last Wednesday I was off work so I joined my Mom at Sharynn's in North Vernon. Sharynn's is a fun place to go when you are fabric shopping. That isn't why we went but is what we ended up doing. lol Mom had a class on her new Janome 11000 so I went with her. When we got done we did a little fabric shopping. More like Mom did some fabric shopping. Sharynn's had just got in some Fresh Picked Follies fabrics. The panels were too cute to pass up! I got 2 panels. For those that haven't seen them before, here is a picture. So cute!!!!

Now I just need to figure out what to do with the ladies!

Hope you had a great Monday and are looking forward to Tuesday!

I have been trying really hard to be on a fabric diet this year. I haven't done very well though. I keep putting on pounds instead of taking off. lol
Today was no exception! The weather has been bad here all day today but I had to go to town to get my hair trimmed. It was needed so badly I couldn't put it off just because of a few inches of snow. Of course, while I was in town I felt the urge to stop at Sharynn's, one of my favorite quilt shops. The main reason I went into Sharynns is because they have been saving me their empty bolt boards and I hadn't been in to pick them up lately. While I was there though, Rose had to show me some new things they had gotten in.
This panel was one of the new things they had gotten and I just had to have one. Isn't it so cute! They had the fabric line to go with it but I managed to contain myself there. Just barely though! lol


I also purchased a one pound bag of worms. It was the last one they had. I had gotten a couple of bags before at Christmas for gifts. If you don't know what worms are they are 2 1/2" x WOF strips. How many worms are in a pound? That was what I asked the first time I bought a bag. I was quite surprised that there were 50 in a pound. Well worth the $10 I paid for them.

Rose and Hope work at Sharynns and they just had to show me what they had Sharynn special order for them. I can't tell you what it was but I ordered one for my Mom's birthday gift. I think she is going to love it! Her birthday is in April so I will probably end of giving it to her as soon as it comes in.

We got quite a bit of snow last week and today we are being hit again. I AM SICK OF SNOW!!! I was looking at a friend of mines blog the other day. She had pictures of her kids playing in the snow. I had to post a comment on her blog about it. Remember when we were young and couldn't wait for a big snow. Couldn't wait to go play in it! Snow days from school! Now we cringe when the weather forecasters are telling us snow is even headed our way. I guess you can tell we have grown up! When did that happen? lol
