Mail Box Coming and Goings :)

Yesterday was an awesome mail day!!!  Don't you just love those kind of days ;)    First off, I got my May Sew Sampler Box, which I will share more of tomorrow after I get a chance to make this month's block ;)   Second, I got a giant squishy package, and ya all know those are the best kind of packages!!!  I was thrilled when my good friend Jina Barney asked if I wanted to participate in a blog hop for her second fabric line with Poppie Cotton's called Wanderings :)   And look at the pretty goodness that Wanderings is ;)  I already have a pattern written up and I can't wait to get cutting and sewing these gorgeous prints.    And as a side note, You might recall, I also am working on a pattern using Jina's first line Prairie Sisters, and I managed to finish the quilting on it over the holiday weekend, (10 hours of quilting!!!) so hopefully I can get the pattern finished up soon and share it with you all ;) 


And a third Quilty Goodness Package arrived yesterday as well!!!   Speaking of projects in the works, I still haven't decided what pattern I want to do for Jocelyn's bed that I mentioned back here, but I am leaning towards a new design that I could do a tutorial for ya all ;)    And with that planned in my mind, I needed some yardage for binding and since  Lou Lou Fabric Shop's Memorial Day sale was so awesome, I bought some extra so I could make matching curtains to go with the quilt ;)   And that In the Meadow Charm Pack might have hopped in my cart as well, tee hee hee.  You all know I can't resist Charm Packs!!!     Now I just need to decide on a quilt design so I can get on to making her quilt and the tutorial ;)   Anything in particular you would like to see in a new tutorial, a technique or design concept?? 


And with happy incoming mail, I was excited to also have some happy outgoing mail ;)  I finished my Bee Block for Sinta and was thrilled to make another Around The World Block.  If you haven't tried one of these before, they are so much fun!!!  In fact, I even had my Bee Mates make me this block a few years back and made this awesome Small Trips Quilt from them ;)    It really is such a fun and fast quilt with so many layout options, you totally need to try it some day if you haven't already ;) 


And now, I think I best get to cutting, stitching, pressing and repeating with all these new pretty fabrics :)  

I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!!!
