Thank you.....thank you!

I am such a fortunate girl!  A few weeks back I entered a giveaway on Sarah's blog....and I won!  Not only did I win a sweet bundle of Sarah Fielke fabric, but Sarah packed sweets and a fantastic little pincushion kit in my parcel....thanks Sarah...
And if you are not already following Sarah's AMAZING blog - you can find it here!
Then (if that was not enough to make my day) my sister stopped for a visit and gave me two fabric reference books she picked up in Williamsburg!  What fun!  Thanks sis!
And to round out my day....I finished this adorable SLEEP quilt....
This is a Denyse Schmidt pattern.  I found it in the winter issue of International Quilt Festival Magazine...
I pieced this quilt with different shades of ivory....and added a piece of this fabric...
I think it gives this quilt more texture and depth...I machine quilted in a loopy pattern...
I love the simplicity of this pattern....just the word SLEEP....which is what most of us will want to do after all the festivities this week :-)

Weekends always seem to fly by so quickly....but I enjoy the beginning of the week since it is just Flanders and me :)  
So today I pulled out my basket blocks to add a little of this and that...
These are very tiny pinwheels...cute...cute....
Fun sashings...
That's it...just a lazy Monday!!!  What are you working on???
