  1. Good Tidings to you and me…

    January 1, 2012 by bigmamaquilts

    What I received for Christmas!

    My Santa is amazing… really amazing!  I was so blown away opening all of this!

    Yes ladies, that is a Silhouette Cameo, and I CANNOT wait to start cutting with it.

    I can join the Farmer’s Wife Quilt Along with my new The Famer’s Wife Sampler Quilt book.  I’m about 6 months behind, and I won’t be able to start until I finish the hand print quilt.  But oh, I have time to decide what fabrics to choose.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Etchings line by Moda.  Maybe this quilt needs to be scrappy using the fabrics from my stash to keep with the spirit of the farmer’s wife.  Oh what’s a girl to do?!?  The letters in this book are amazing, and as a mom of two daughters, I would definitely let my daughter marry a farmer.

    I like the decal from Fiber Flies, but I really wanted the I heart Sewing one…  Oh well, maybe I’ll order the one I want, and save this one for a swap.

    And finally, every girls dream — Peppermint bark and a Weight Watchers diet (really, I asked for this, really, I did).  That is a Garmin 405 running watch (Big D got a new running watch and I got this hand-me-down), minus the heart rate monitor.  Not too shabby, eh?!  I really don’t need proof that my heart is working hard as I can hear my heart ready to explode and my umpa-lumpa face will atest to that fact!  My running goal for this year is the Seattle Rock N Roll half marathon.  I’ve been plagued with injuries since my last baby.  That’s a discussion for another day :)

    It really doesn’t get better than that!  I hope you recieved everything you wanted.

    What’s on your Christmas wish list?  Do you give subtle hints to your Santa?

    My list isn’t long…  some say expensive…  I say ask me want I want and I’ll tell you :)

    I heart Sewing decal for the swagger wagon

    The Silhouette Cameo for the many craft ideas that are swimming in my head

    Fabric…  Cluck, Cluck, Sew Fat Quarter Bundle, a Sassy Layer Cake, and an adorable little Charm Pack

    Notions…  Aurifil thread, Farmer’s Wife Quilt book, Make it Sew Modern book, new sewing room (okay so I would settle for half of the play room)

    I have lots of patterns and tutorials swimming around and waiting for 2012.

    Have a very Blessed Christmas, love those around you, surround the ones you love, and above all

    Eat, Drink, and be Mary

    We’ll see you in 2012!
