A GOLDEN TICKET from the Fat Quarter Shop

I won a wonderful gift from the Fat Quarter Shop.  There it was when I received my

order of the new Jolly Bars that are exclusive at the shop.

           A $50.00 gift certifcate to the Fat Quarter Shop.  Wow did that make my day.

        I had pre-ordered two Jolly Bars from the Fig Tree line called Somerset.  The fabric designs and
        colors are just beautiful.  The Jolly Bars also come with a free pattern for a quilt.

 

                         Check out the Fat Quarter Shop if you haven't been there.  They have
                      a large selection of fabrics, good tutorials, and great service. I'm sure you
                      will like it as much as I do.

Designer Block of the Month2014

 I am taking part in a Block of Month quilt sponsored by the Fat Quarter Shop.  The fabric is "Snowbird" by Laundry Basket for Moda fabrics.  The fabric has a great feel to it and the colors are wonderful.  I am up to date (hooray) and am looking forward to Block 5 in October.  I have SO many unfinished quilts that I am keeping up to date on this so it can be finished.  I am also putting the borders on a half log cabin quilt made from scraps for my husband.

 

The newest style for flip flops

Michigan daughter took Miss Sarah to buy new shoes, and she got a footie to use when trying them on.
All was great and Sarah got new shoes for KINDERGARTEN.   The rest of the day she wore the footie, with a hole cut out for the big toe, and the edge of the footie fluffed out with her flip flops.  However I believe this new style is only worn on the left foot.  You may wish to try this.

Going Home

Today Juliet and Oregon daughter are going home after a week's visit.  Juliet got to sit in the pilot's chair
and wear his or her hat before takeoff, or perhaps they let her co-pilot. LOL

They were here so that the MI family could help to celebrate Juliet's birthday.  Cousin Sarah was so excited
to see Juliet and they had the best time playing together.  What a great time we all had.  Hopefully we will
see them in the Fall in Oregon.
