So excited!

i have received lots of fabric coupons recently. i haven't purchased fabric in almost a year! (HUGE shocker, since i have quite the fabric obsession). i really haven't sewn too many things in this past year either, but now that i'm back in the groove, i have quite the project list. soooo...i decided to treat myself to a few fun new prints. first, fabric.com (one of my most favorite fabric sites for reasonably priced designer fabric) sent me a 15% off my purchase coupon. then they put christmas fabric and patterns on sale. i have been pining over this grinch flannel christmas fabric becasue i want to make my girlies nightgowns. sooo...i ordered the grinch fabric, a shirt pattern and two bag patterns. then, the very next day, quilthome.com (home of some of my most favorite girly fabric designers) sent me a coupon code for 25% off of all amy butler fabric. sooo, i purchased fabric to make the bags i bought the patterns for. i can't wait to get everything in the mail!!!!

i started cutting the fabric for my sorority quilt. i have actually gone back and forth on what quilt pattern i wanted to use for two years now. i finally decided to kind of create my own. that way, i can accomodate the different sizes of t-shirt cut outs i have and still have a super cute quilt. i would really like to have it finished by this weekend, but i'm thinking that might not happen.

i'm also super excited for the weekend. the girls and i are going to watch fireworks, picnic, see a concert and go swimming. we have a three day weekend, so lots of time to spend together. we are also going to make some fun treats for both our fireworks picnic and our "quiet" evening at home. yay!
