    After my 5 year cancer check up and being "clean" again, my Sweetie took me shopping. We went to TJ Max and we found these beautiful sterling silver earrings/with fresh water pearls. Then we went to Hobby Lobby and found these wonderful fabrics. My thought is a Turning 20 Again quilt. Do you have any other thoughts for the fabrics. My husband has been wonderful and we had a blessed Thanksgiving! Merry Christmas everyone!

    P.S. these doctor's here in Texas are brilliant!

    Dizzy,
    I had never even been to Hobby Lobby before! Nana2 suggested I go there and we had a blast!
    Thanks for your sweet words on being cancer free. I am indeed thrilled. Six more months and here we come again.

    Congratulations on being survivor. That is so great. What a sweetie you have for a hubby and what good news for him, too. He knows how to celebrate.

    Your fabrics are gorgeous.

    Wonderful News for you. Those fabrics are lovely. What pretty borders they have...seems a shame to cut them up, but someone will surely suggest a pattern where the borders can be used.

    i would be tempted to try the borders as OBW's. i think on an angle they could look great. i would start in one corner , or one side, with the black and white and fade into the pink combos.

    i'm so glad that you're home free. we're all thinking of you.
