Last Thursday was my birthday. DH told me if I could wait until taxes came back for my gift, he had a surprise for me.
Well tonight, I got the surprise! He took me to a LQS and told me to buy enough fabric and supplies for 4 quilts! Whoopee! Woof! Woof!

I started looking and had a real problem settling for just 4! I did myself proud. I did however, forget to buy thread :oops:.

Tell me what you think....All the colors are much brighter than they appear. C'mon spring!

This is for the reqested quilt for DN, Pink, Orange, and Yellow were her colors.
