Birthdays and giveaways

First, happy birthday to me and my step-brother Patrick! I'm the big 2-8 (inching ever closer to 30...eek!), and he's 25. Here's to another great year for us both!

(That's us on the left.)

Second, I wanted to show everyone my awesome giveaway winnings. I enter giveaways on other sewing blogs all the time, but I never win. Sad. That is, until I finally did! A few weeks ago, I won a giveaway over on Kaelin's blog, The Plaid Scottie (it's really good, and I highly recommend you check her out if you haven't already). My package arrived last week, but I didn't have a chance to take a photo until today. Isn't it so cute??

It's a Ta Dot Rainbow fat quarter bundle from Michael Miller, and the colors make me smile just looking at them. Now to decide how to use them!
