lucky, lucky me

I've won a few drawings lately. Wanna see?

Every month, when I go to the quilt shop to attend the Block of the Month class, they give me a little red raffle ticket. In two years, I never won anything. Until March, that is. Now, I've won two months in a row. First, it was this adorably packaged fat quarter bundle.

Then, the first week of April, it was this chubby little roll of 5" strips.

Look at all those prints! And they are *exactly* my style! Love them. Thanks, Mary, and the wonderful people at The Fabric Patch.

But my luck extended to the internet and the crafty blog world, too.

Hillary's original doll arrived last week. I've since had to put her high up on a shelf, far from sticky fingers (literally). But I can still see her every day, and she makes me smile with her sweet simplicity.

Then Sarah picked my name in her April giveaway, and I received the cutest turtle magnet to adorn my fridge. Again, the little darling is placed well above the danger line, at my eye level where no one can love her to death.

So much luck and cheer in a very difficult month. Thank you so much, I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate your generosity.
