The Amateur Quilter

Many of my followers and quilting friends have told me that I need to change the name of my blog because I am not an amateur, but at heart, I always will be. I call myself an amateur to remind me that every stitch, every fabric shape and every seam is more perfect when it looks like it was made by a human being (especially if it’s me, and I am not perfect). This way I spend more time admiring my finished masterpieces and less time ripping out stitches. This is just a little bit of my journey...

My Crafty Home-Life

So, I entered this giveaway and lo and behold, I did not win (I know, shocking!) . But, as it turns out Linda contacted me because she saw my blog about quilting. While she does not quilt she said that many of her larger projects had several "scraps" left over :) She wanted to know if I would take them and put them to good use. So, I said "sure." (thinking I would get a package of little bits etc.) Check this out:

These are not scraps to a quilter! These are yards of fabric! I was shocked! And, she was gracious enough to pay for shipping too! She was just so happy to give them a good home! She wrote in her thank you note that she was trying to get up to 100 followers, so, give her some love here and become a follower:

She had 99 followers as I write this! Tell her I sent you!

Anyway, I just wanted to share my good fortune and help Linda out!

Until next time!

Mike.
