A couple of weeks ago I commented on this blog. I have been reading this blog for about, oh who knows how long. A couple of months ago Cindy was the speaker at my quilt guild. She did a trunk show and lecture "What I know for Sure - Lessons Learned from Quilting". It was a very interesting lecture and I enjoyed it very much.... I took photos, but the lighting is so bad at our meeting place that all of them came out too dark to see.
ANYWAY.... I won a giveaway on her blog a couple of days ago. I won a copy of her new book and 5 FQ's. Aren't they lovely... I think there is applique in this book. In fact I am sure there is applique in this book. I can't wait to finish my bird so I can start a new project. Cause I can't start a new applique project until I finish this one...right?? right??
Edit-Did anyone notice I said 5 FQ's when we can all see that there are SIX (6) in the photo. I got ALL SIX from Cindy....
And you know there is applique in this book... Cute applique....like cute little flower pots with flowers that would make a really cute wall hanging... in applique.
Guess I better get going on that bird...

I now agree that Blogs are great fun and even better than email. Thanks, Pat, for shooving me into this new technology for me. LOL
Yes, reading blogs is fun and having someone read yours is even more fun.

Everyone loves comments on their blog! And who says you can't start another applique project before the bird is done? Go for it!

Wow congratultions! Looks like a great book! I too love to get comments on my blog. It does let you know there are breathing people out there reading the posts! At least I think they are breathing ;-)
Top 'o the mornin to yha! - nice blog!
I never thought I would enjoy blogging, but I really do. (Thanks, Mimi, for talking me into it.) And I have found lots of blogs that I like to read.
(And see there? You do have a new hobby! Gotta applique something from that book!)
Congrats on the win....and.....of COURSE you can start a second applique while working on the first one. How could you think otherwise?? LOL
I enjoy reading your blog and would still even if you didn't post as often. After all, we need time to sew. Great win, congratulations.
Well aren't you the lucky one, great looking book and such lovely fq's. I'm guessing you're really enjoying the new found applique?
