Show and Tell plus a Giveaway

Last night was our weeking quilt get-together. 12 of us celebrated 2 birthdays, J and D! We had carrot cake and chocolate chip cookies :^) Here's some show and tell for you all to look at and remember to click on the pics for a closer look.

First here's a quilt that P made for her granddaughter. P was sewing the binding to the back last night. Isn't it adorable? Lucky little girl!
Here's some fabric that Myra picked up the other day. She's the proud mum to 2 pugs. So how could she not buy some of this fabric! She says she's going to make pillowcases with the fabric.Here's the project that Myra was working on last night. She's been hand piecing these hexagons for a while now. She spread it out so we could see her progress.Lastly here's a kaleidoscope wallhanging that J (one of the birthday girls) made with a Moda fabric line called 'Chocolat' by 3 Sisters. I'm amazed how all those tiny little pieces met in the centre of each kaleidoscope! J was busy sewing on the binding last night.

I Won!

I've just won my first giveaway. Look at Bingo-Bonnie's post here. I'm so excited! I can't believe it! Doing my happy dance. And while I'm dancing I want to tell you about a fun shop-hop that I did on the internet. It's called Quilt Dash and the link is here for joining up. Once you've joined up (it's free) I highly recommend reading the PDF file called "Tutorial for Assistance in Managing Your Quilt Dash Account". It explains what you need to do so just read it! The PDF file is found on the Dashboard page. So while I continue to do my happy dance on the way to my sewing room you out there can dash all over the internet on a shop-hop. Have fun!

Did several loads of laundry.
Make pancakes for breakfast today and a loaf of banana bread.

Worked on connector units for my Snowman quilt.
Decided on a varigated thread to do the machine buttonhole stitch on the fused applique blocks of the Snowmen.
Thought up goodies to include in my giveaway prize draw for
