Thank you's with This, Thats and These...

 From time to time, when I find a new quilt shop that really 

bowls me over, I will come home and tell all of you about it! 

That's what I did when I recently visited OKC

and  the Quiltworks Shop...

Well, today...I came home and

I had a squishy package from said Quilt shop...

with a sweet note thanking me for writing about

their shop on my little blog...

and along with it...some really beautiful fat quarters...

That has never happened to me before...

I wrote about them because they really are the real thing...

Please visit them ONLINE or in person and tell them I sent you in!

I can't think of a better way to tell them 

Thank you... 

Thank you for such a sweet and generous gesture.

I really am STILL bowled OVER!!!!

And what can I say about that sweet man of mine...

He was in NY all weekend working...

and then  

STUCK

because of hurricane Irene...

He was supposed to be home on Saturday...

Then Sunday...

But two grueling TRAVEL NIGHTMARE days

later...

He graced my kitchen doorstep

with his lovely presence...

NOW...
With all that going on ...

He found a JOANN's Fabrics...

and that's right girls...

(tissues permitted here...)

 He brought me home those lovely

fat quarters you see above...

He said he had to go into the 120 mile an hour hurricane wind,

Uphill no less and BARE FOOTED...

to get those for me...

and you know what girls?

I BELIEVE HIM.

My last but certainly not least

Thank you goes to Joan...

Joan is in my Block Swap Group...

Thank you so much ...

I seriously 

HEART 

these!!!

THIS...

Just a little more and it will be finished...

Oh, but I digress...

*THATs*

 If you read my blog...

You KNOW why I HAD to have this 

Pattern Book from Art to Heart...

and finally...

*THESE*

I have been filling my book shelves lately...

and here's what on them...

and of course....

Can you believe tomorrow is already

WEDNESDAY?

My Hometown...

You know you are going to love

a new fabric line when:

You are cutting your strips...

and find YOUR Hometown

listed in the fabric...

(Sugar Land...)

The polka-dots are plentiful 

and bright...

the colors draw you in

and make you feel at home...

and you are almost to the end

and your mind says...

I can't wait for a cold rainy day

to snuggle under this...
