What did I get?

Glad you asked! I was so excited to get a gift certificate from my sis-in-law (we draw names) to Spoonflower! One can upload a design and they print it on fabric! So you can be a fabric designer! I can't wait to try it and I hope I don't get too addicted! I got subscriptions to McCall's Quilting, Fons & Porter quilting magazines. A gift certificate to Arnie's (where I get my basket weaving supplies!) Gift card to my FAV place to eat; Texas Roadhouse The coolest necklace sets from an Etsy shop I happened upon called Polarity . I told my hubby about the sewing one I wanted and my sister heard me talking about how cool it was and called the designer to have a quilting set made up for me too! I thought it was soooo cool that Cat, the owner, would make a special order set for no extra charge! I also got iPod speakers, clothes, some craft books such as how to bind books, and a trendy sewing book! I got so much creative stuff that my head is spinning trying to figure out where to begin! I think I'm going to have a fun and creative 2009!

  2. You've had a lovely time by the sounds of it. How on earth did Urban sleep till 9:30am on Christmas Day!!! Must be some kind of record. And I totally agree about family portraits - Aargh! And what a lovely lot of presents you got. Sounds like people really thought about you and what would make you happy - so nice.

  3. NICE gifts...I'm going to check out this Spoonflower you mentioned...never heard of it before and it sounds really interesting. I, too, was shocked when you said your son slept until 9:30. Does he do that EVERY day???

  5. Wow! That's quite a haul for Christmas! You know, every year I drop a hint that a Fons & Porter gift subscription would be nice, but I never get it! Oh well, my birthday is in a couple of months...

    I hope you had a Merry Christmas!

  6. Hi Mel~
    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I did have it titled Barefoot Quilter in the Garden, that was me. I was trying to change my template a couple months ago and really messed it up. So I deleted everything and made this one. I remembered your blog though and made sure I added it to the ones I follow. By the way that is a super cute necklace!!!
