I love Squishy mail!

I got a squishy package in the mail today from my blogger friend Michelle of quilts from my crayon box blog.  I had won a beautiful block in my choice of colors.  I chose Red, Black and  Aqua, it came today and it is gorgeous..she also included some other goodies...yippee!

I got this fantastic Applique book, I am so excited because I have never really learned the "right" way to do applique.  I also got three cute fat quarters and a cute star quilt pattern...Thank you so much Michelle, you made my day!

Hugs!  Julianne

Happiness!

I can't express how happy I am to be living closer to my son and his little family.  I see them all the time now, they come over so much now and I LOVE it and I am so happy!  Losing our home was horrible but its a blessing in disguise in so many ways!  I get to see this little sweetheart so all the time!!  Yay!!
