It's been a good week. I enjoyed my 35th birthday. It is more meaningful to me than 30 for some reason. I think I have more time for reflection now than I did when my kids were 2 and 1. I think these years are a great mix of feeling young while having some life experience and self-acceptance as well.
I found some fun things at Target the other day. I am on the Liberty of London bandwagon, especially the black, white and hot pink stuff!!!
Here is my big dilemma...It is a large throw. I would love to do some fun quilting in the circle centers but I would be wrestling with it quite a bit. I am so intrigued by long-arm quilting. I have tried to find a "quilt it yourself" place to use a long arm and take a class but I have not found that yet. Please leave me a comment if you have tried this yourself or if you have any ideas.
Then we all goo goo and ga gad all afternoon.

I love that quilt top! And using what you have is even better.
And that cake must have been fabulous. Glad you had a fun birthday celebration!
No suggestions on the quilting, just wanted to let you know that the quilt top is fabulous!
you are so talented! happy belated birthday! that set at target is precious!!!
my dress? no, i got it years ago at goody's i believe? i wanted to be able to fit into it at easter, but yeah. . .i'm sitting here eating ice cream! don't think it's going to happen!
I love that quilt pattern. I have used it once and will definitely make it again as it's one of my favorite quilts. I don't have a longarm so I followed the hexagon pattern using my walking foot in each of the three hexagons per block- like an echo line. I think that it looks nice, but definitely a stencil in each center would be pretty too.
the quilt top turned out absolutly beautiful!
Happy belated birthday! The quilt turned out amazing, so cute!!!
and it looks even better finished than i could have imagined!! nice job!
