Happy, Happy Mail!

Happy mail arrived yesterday from Cathy who blogs at Cathy's CRAZY BY DESIGN.  I won it during the semi-annual Quilty Orphan Adoption event, (hosted by Cynthia Brunz). 

 
 
It's the Dot Dot Dash Bag.   All the hard parts are already completed by Cathy.  The fabrics are gorgeous!  Cathy was a pattern tester for Sara Lawson (of Sew Sweetness).  EVERYTHING was included, zippers, handle support, padding...  Cathy even marked the pattern for where I needed to begin!  What a great prize!  I'm going to set aside Friday nights to work on the bag.  Friday night is usually date night (usually it's just a night we have family time and our son picks where we eat -- even if it's McDonalds...)  After we eat and drive around we come home and chill in the living room in which my sewing area is adjacent.  It's usually tv and iPad/computer time.  I'll try to do a step or two on Fridays and then put it back in it's little bin all organized and stuff and then back to the "current hot project" drawer.



Check out this cool PJ pattern (IN REAL SIZES) giveaway at The Intrepid Thread.  I just inherited some "non quilty" fabric that would be perfect for PJ's!  Coincidence? We'll see.  Here's a pic of the jammies from the blog giveaway post.  There's also a sweet Manicure Mitts pattern on the post -- BONUS!
