Here it is, the last day of January. Did anyone else's month seem liked you just blinked and it was over ;) But the great thing about the month going by fast was it meant it didn't seem I had to wait as long for my January
Sew Sampler box !!! The theme for the box is Spool of Love and it was filled with so much Quilty Goodness ;) Have I mentioned how much I love my
Sew Sampler box?? (tee hee hee :)
For starters,
Bonnie and Camille. I mean, need I say more ;) I just love
Bonnie and Camille fabrics. (and yes, I say that about just every designer, but hey, I really do love them all!!!) So I was super excited when I open it to find a
Little Snippets Petite Honey Bun, which are 1 1/2" strips, that are so cute!! And there is also
Little Snippets Yardage for finishing the Sew Mates pattern that was included. How cute is that!!! I just love that
Fat Quarter Shop keeps sending us everything we need to make the project :)
And this month's notions had me smiling :) I have been totally geeking out over the
Ruby Olfa Cutters that have been popping up in celebration of Olfa's 40th anniversary!!! And I have to laugh as I am writting this because just yesterday,I was asked when teaching . . . "How many Rotary Cutters do you own, and how many do you actually use." To which I answered, "I am not sure, and I use all of them!!!" In my opinion, you can never have to many ;)
And I so loving this
Little Snippets Notepad. I am always looking for a scrap paper in my sewing room for doing quick match calculations, so this little pad is staying right next to the pen jar! And I already told the kids, no "borrowing it" like they did with the post-it pad I had there before ;)
And of course, with a new box, there is a new Barn Block!!! And this month's block was super easy and went together in no time at all. And I have to say, I am starting to really have to get to the bottom of my grey scraps to find a piece large enough to make the barn!!! Yippee for using scraps. Good thing there are only 2 more blocks to go in this Barn Raising ;)
And that's my January
Sew Sampler Box!!! Maybe February will go by just as fast as January did and before I know it, another little aqua box will be in the mail ;)
I hope you all have a very Happy Quilting Day!!!
