Ok, so I did a bit of running around today. Went to the post office, but the line was out the door and it was raining/downpouring, so will go tomorrow.
I get home and check my mail. There's a BIG, FAT envelope in my mailbox! Oh goody, goody, goody! I got a package! WOOHOO!!
Well, let me tell you. It wasn't what I expected. What I expected to be just a pattern was MORE than that.
Take a look!!
I just want to thank my special angel for this. She really didn't have to.
If you want to know who this angel is....just look at the bottom of the picture.

Thank you sooo much Cathy M!

Only if you send REAL snowmen along with about 1 foot of snow and a sled.
Oh, nevermind the sled. I have one in my closet. lol

Isn't it pretty! I was petting and having fun with it...yes, I even smelled it. lmao
Oh, I don't know if I want to cut it! It's too pretty!
Hubby even said...You aren't going to cut it, are you? lol

Cathy is so sweet. She really didn't have to, but I'm glad she did.
No clue what I'm going to make with it. Maybe I'll just hang it on the wall and look at it for a while. :)

Yes, Cathy is an angel for sure!!! Terri, i have a secret :) Cathy sent me the angel fabric too...i wanted to post photos of it, but she said in a note that she sent some to you too, so i figured, i better not post photos! Or will spoil your surprise! lol And my hubby said same thing, you aren't gonna cut that fabric are ya? And i said, well no, if i do it will cut some of the words! So i've been keeping this a secret til you got yours too :) And some of the pretty swirly pastels fabric too, and some valentine fabric. I might make some wedding quilts for my daughters and grandaughter with the valentine fabric, it will go perfect with my wedding dress, which im gonna cut up and put in the quilts...don't wince anyone lol, hubby and i eloped, and so my dress isnt a real wedding dress, but it's cotton, and it's white with pink flowers.

Oh, you wouldn't have ruined the surprise. I didn't know what she was gong to send me. She did tell me after I sent her a PM to thank her, that she had sent you the same fabric. She's so sweet!
I think we better stop talking about her like this or her head is going to swell so big she won't be able to fit in her house! lol
About the wedding dress. Hubby and I pretty much eloped too, so I don't have the white dress either.
Gotta show pics when you are done!

Cathy M 04-24-2008 08:27 AM

You guys are too goofy.... it is I whom is surrounded by the most wonderful and fun angels on this board. It is so great to be able to participate in a group of people that are so kind. Sometimes after seeing whats going on around the planet, we can forget how outstanding and fantastic people really are. Thank you for reminding me how wonderful we humans can be :):)

Shadow Dancer 04-25-2008 01:13 PM

Beautiful fabric. :) Could you tell me what the name of that line of fabric is? Thank you. :)

jnebug 04-25-2008 04:27 PM

Cathy I just love the fabric you sent tlrnhi,could you please reveal your sources where you bought such lovely fabric especially the angel fabric.June

Cathy M 04-25-2008 04:50 PM

I bought it from a very kind lady who owns a local quilt shop. Her name is Tasha and her quilt shop is Quilter's Quarry here in Missoula. She always has very fun stuff and there is always a sale going on. They sell wonderful kits and fat quarters, they don't add additional charges for the quilt kits- the price is the same if you bought all the stuff and cut it out yourself. I appreciate that as I've paid 'alot' extra for that service in other shops. Anyway, long answer to your question :):) This month they have all their fabric on sale for yard cuts and their fat quarters are $1.75 each.
