Happy birthday, happy year, happy quilting!
How many brothers?
I only have one sister, but DH has 2 of each.
I turned 60 last summer.

How cute. What nice gifts they gave you. Aren't brothers wonderful, I only have one, but love him so very much, no sisters. We are extremely close. Both parents are gone now and we are very close, and always have been. He has remembered me on Mother's Day, Birthday and Christmas for so many years with a phone call or a card, even flowers once on my birthday. WE live about 150 miles from each other.

They were so proud of themselves! For the last few months they had people going to the Goodwill and garage sales gathering up fabric, and asking their relatives for scraps.

Your friends must have had so much fun planning this for you.
What a lovely gift!!!!

That, and the 60 helium filled balloons in my greenhouse. Which they did in the middle of the night. Along with 60 large home-made candles in the front yard.

What a great birthday they made for me!
