YAY! I won and I am sooo inspired!

I woke up to a very happy email from Quilt Home  saying that I was the "link of the week" and that I won $20 gift certificate! I LOVE their shop, they always have the fastest shipping, seriously! I can order on Friday and I have my package in my hands on Monday, plus they ALWAYS write a nice handwritten note and they have fantastic fabrics! That definetly inspires a gal right?

For those of you who inspire me....

Jim and Zach, well Jim bought me THE NICEST sewing machine (Bernina Artista 630) to support and continue my sewing and he doesn't complain (not too much anyways) about my messy craft room :) he always tells me I can do anything :) and then Zach, the best son ever, who always, always says, "very cool mom" when I show him something I made or has something positive to say :)  My mom, because she is always super supportive and says she loves everything I do, thanks mom ;)

I am also inspired by my yahoo girlfriends, they are the best, they always have the nicest comments for me when I show them a sewing project :) thanks girls! (even though I haven't been scrapbooking as much!)

 My friends here that live near me, where would I be without them?!! Rebecca, Angela, Barbara, Teresa, you guys are the sweetest! always willing to listen and I know you all have my back :) I also want to shout out to Donna, my sister in law because she sews so beautifully and does wonderful work and has inspired me in many ways :)

my online buddy, Dee, wow, that gal knows how to word everything, she is super talented, she loves Jesus and she always says the right words.

I LOVE you all!

also wanted to share this

talk about being inspired from I heart linen  I LOVE everything this woman creates, if you don't have her book  I Heart Patchwork  you HAVE to get it, it is full of great projects.

Thats it for today, hugs!

You won!!!! How fabulous! I can't wait to see what you use your winnings to get! How fun! Congratulations my friend!

Your post today is just what I needed! One of the friends that I've drifted away from...just a current in both our lives taking us in different directions...told me today she has breast cancer and has been going through chemo. So, to read your kind words was a balm to my spirit. I'm so thankful for friends like you...who even though far away...have the gift of encouragement and standing in the gap!

Love your blog, love you and your family for being so great to you!

God bless today!
