Birthday, Quilts & Blankies

John turned 42 this past weekend. All day he kept saying, Babe, 42....42 babe. We celebrated on his day by going to Coco's, our favorite Mexican restaurant. All he wanted was a GIANT Margarita! We got there before happy hour was over so we could get that sucker for 1/2 price!

Let me just say when you turn 42...eat a lot of Mexican & drink (almost) all a giant margarita....this is what happens to you at 7pm.

You pass out...on the couch with your coat & glasses still on.

I finished binding & quilting the Color Me Badd quilt on Saturday. Today, Tori delivered it to it's owner. I'll admit...I had a hard time seeing it go. I always get attached to my quilts, but this one was different...I mean I really got attached to it. Maybe because I dreamt of the design in the middle of the night and got up right then and sketched it all out.

My label...I finally remembered to label a quilt! I've forgotten to do so on the last 3.

I'm happy that it's going to be loved.

Dinosaur has been wanting a quilt like his brother Reeses. I don't have the time right now to make another doggy quilt, so I whipped him up this flannel blankie. It's funny because he knows it's his.

A Giveaway

I have been in such a good mood lately. Why? Well, I am no longer a regular bus driver, I got my special needs route back 3 weeks ago! I went from having 85 kids to having 7....ah, it's so nice! NO MORE STRESS!!!

So I decided to do what we blogging woman do best when we we are happy and excited....we have a giveaway!

I am giving away this adorable flannel children's blanket handmade by me. One side is camouflage with frogs and the other is a warm cream.

It measures 36x42 To enter all you have to do is leave me a comment.

Here is a close up of the froggy fabric. It is very soft & quite warm. I think it will make a little boy, or girl for that matter, very happy!



I'll pick a winner using random.org this Friday, December 17. I will announce the winner at 5:30 that evening. GOOD LUCK!
