Our local quilt shop where I've been taking my quilting classes has been giving out "birthday bucks" for the money you spent. For every $10 spent, you received $10 in birthday bucks. Today was the owners birthday ... and she had an auction where you could spend your birthday bucks.

I was able to buy something at the auction (I basically "won" it).

I got down to almost spending all the birthday bucks I had when I said... "I want that kit ...don't make me beg for birthday bucks".

And here's the kit I got :D

Yay! You are going to have one beautiful quilt! And I think you'll really enjoy French braids. They're easier than they look. You are one lucky duck!

How exciting :mrgreen: Can't wait to see it when you are done... whenever that might be :thumbup:

Lucky you!! Beautiful fabric!!

I'm excited for you. It's going to be an eye-popper when it's all done----and I can't wait to see it.

Congratulations!! That's a great pattern to do...one of my favorites!

Totally, jealous and excited for you - Can't wait to see it finished

congratulations!

Really pretty!

I just posted a note about the fabric in your kit - Do you know the line?? It is absolutely gorgeous.

That's going to make a gorgeous quilt! And the braid is easier than you think, it's basically a log cabin. Go for it!

Don't have a clue ... I can try to find out.

Congrats! That's beautiful fabric. Don't sell yourself short, it's VERY EASY to do these! Try a table runner first and you'll see.

Congratulations Pretty Fabrics!!!

I'm so happy for you. You do so many things for others. I am glad it was your turn. Beautiful material....

I love that fabric!

I would appreciate the effort - Thanks so much

congradulations! post a picture when you do get it done.

Oh my that is so pretty. I love the fabrics. I bet it's going to be beautiful.

The fabric is truly gorgeous. If you find out the line of it, I would also like to know.

You are one lucky gal!

Congratulations! I love the colors. I would love to win something at my LQS! Have fun with it!

I'm sooo glad for you. I bet you were wearing a smile all day.:] I would have. Can't wait to hear what line of fabric that is too.
Don't let it scare you. We all have faith in you. Any trouble ; you know where to go?!? lol lol lol

Congrats Robin!


And don't let the pattern fool you!! The braid pattern is excellent for us beginners -- ALL straight lines!!

I think you should start on it while you're still excited about it!

(besides, we are the only ones that can see our 'mistakes' anyway -- and the girls here have taught me to call them 'design elements')

=) Congrats on your win!!

Wish I had your luck, Glenn

Congratulations on your win. I love that fabric and hope you can find out what line it is.
