It's a good life...

It's a good life, new job, finish at 2pm, 5 minute drive home, house is quiet and peaceful, Mia is excited to see me, enough time to get out of uniform, sit and enjoy coffee before I head off to collect Kaitlyn from school.  Did I mention it's a good life!!!

Then it gets even better... home for arvo and time to sew and look what I've just finished.
This one's for the Mother-in-law who's never really taken much notice of my craft, however after visiting her the other day and found her on the lounge wrapped up in her dressing gown I figured maybe she'd put a lap quilt to good use! So away it goes for now till Mother's Day.

You may recall my mum, sister and I were working together to make a lap quilt for my nana's 90th birthday, well here it is...
VERY PRETTY...
Mum's VERY CLEVER...
YEAH, like REALLY CLEVER...wish my machine could do that!!!

Did I mention it's a good life...
Look what the postie delivered the other day...

Ahhhhhhhh!!

NEW JOB!!

Well I can honestly say it's been a big week, full of a whole eray of emotions.  Firstly things haven't been going real well at my current job so when the chance of a new job came, I decided to take it.  Sooo, yes I now have a NEW JOB and start there next Thursday.  Basically it's the same as what I have been doing but in a  new business.  It's been really difficult however to deal with all the emotions of leaving where I am and yet being excited about where I'm going.  Ok, now I fell like rambling on.

What a delite it was however to come home on Tuesday to discover the postie had let me a package (just what I needed, good timing postie!!!). 
This is where it was from...
and this is what it was...


It's gorgeous, and me, I just love hearts!!  Thanks sooooo much to Caroline from Trillium for  my fantastic prize. Thanks, thanks, thanks...

Now decisions on what to make, not real sure yet however, I did get on to eBay only to find a matching panel, hence I'm now waiting on postie.

Actually postie's going to busy this week as I'm also waiting for issue 1 and issue 2 (don't tell the husband) of Vignette. 

Exciting days ahead...
Love

Vignette in Stitches Give Away!!

I have recently came accross the Vignette in Stitches blog and have fallen in love with it.  So checking out the lastest post tonight I discovered they are having a give away.  Yip hee, love give aways!  There are 15 fat quarters by Melly Hurlston used in one of the projects from issue 2.  Must admit I don't as yet have issue 1, went looking for it the other day, looks like I'll have to order it directly. 

Off to place an order...
