Many thanks....

Sorry!  Seems like I took a bit of a blog break.  I had to return to work, and have just found myself a bit busy this week.  Plus, I must admit that I received a Nook for Christmas, and I have found myself glued to it.  First, I want to address the giveaway.  Allie, you are the winner!  Send me an email with your snail mail address and I will get your package out to you!!



Next up, apparently I won the giveaway for the Charming Girls Club this month!  Hooray!  Thanks so much to Kelly for all the work she does pulling us all together as quilters.  If you aren't familiar with Kelly, she is definitely a someone you should meet.  She has a great blog, which I love keeping up on.  She also frequently inspires us all to keep stitching.  I consider Kelly to be such a dear friend.  She is one of the kindest, warmest blog friends I have. 

She also has a wonderful online quilt shop, which I love to frequent, Cotton Charm Quilts.  Her prices are hard to beat.  I noticed she has some great new collections to entice you with right now, too. 

What are you working on today?  It is snowy these big fluffy flakes here...like my own private snow globe, I kid you not.  We are suppose to head to a Detroit Pistons game tonight with Buddy, so I hope the weather doesn't delay us. 

Also, I am making a new dinner today, Chipotle-Glazed roast chicken with sweet potatoes.  I had never visited Pioneer Woman's Tasty Kitchen blog, I must say I love it.  If you haven't visited, it is worth your time.

I do hope to get some stitching in sometime soon, maybe when the newness of my Nook wears off.

It sounds like your day is going to be fun. I think I am heading to a gun show with my Dad and then quilting on a quilt which has taken me way to long to complete. (two years in the making and I am not even close). Have you every had a project like that?

No way - oh sweetie I LOVE that fabric - and I don't have any - THANK YOU!!! And congratulations on your winning too, that's awesome! I was very happy to see your name there!

I know you told me but where in the state are you? It was sunny here all day - my mum and aunt were up in Flint overnight, my aunt had surgery, and it snowed all day yesterday, I was terrified they'd be on the roads. Mum had to drive and hasn't driven in snow for 10 years. My aunt got kept overnight as a precaution, so they ended up driving today, with no problems. Did you get to the game? My aunt lives about 5 miles from there, lol.
