Yes, today 52 years ago I was born on February 24, 1957.

My number five gift from sweet
Stephanie. Her and I would talk and share crock pot recipes during the first part of winter and look she made a special recipe book of recipes. The birthday card is one she had on her blog on Tea Talk Tuesdays. I think I am going to find a frame for this card. It is to pretty to put my "special card" box. Thank you for the fifth time, Stephanie. Really five times is not enough. Stephanie, you have made this birthday very special. Thank you to infinity!!

Look what else I received in the mail yesterday from
Terri. One of those cute little angels she had on her blog a while back. It will hang in my sewing room. I would have loved to have seen the quilt before it was all cut up. Look at those cute little prairie points! And speaking of prairie points, come back to tomorrow because I will have a tutorial about making the two color prairie points. Thank you to infinity too, Terri. So sweet of you. Everyone go over wish her "Get well" wishes. She is sick today.
Get well, Terri!
Because it is my birthday and after this post I will have four more posts to be at 100 posts, I am going to have a giveaway.
Applique Giveaway
Non-Applique Giveaway
So here is what you need to do: When you leave a comment tell me which one of the giveaways you would like, the applique or non applique. I will take each name and the giveaway that you want and put them in two containers and on February 28, my husband's birthday, he will draw two names.
You know the drill, you must leave a way for me to contact you if you win and you must tell me which giveaway you would like.
With Passion, Carrie P.
The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking spaces.
Non-Applique for me. Happy Birthday Carrie. Many happy returns. That is really cool that you are giving a gift for your birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy Happy Birthday Carrie Dear. Happy Days will come to you all year. If I had a wish that wish would be - a happy happy birthday to you from me! How fun. I don't think I could choose applique or non applique. Too hard! I like both.
ReplyDeleteI hope it is a marvelous day for you. Yesterday was my mom's birthday. She would have been 91. She's in a happy place I know.
Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Carrie. Happy birthday to you! Do you hear me singing across the miles?

Happy Birthday. I have the applique pattern so I would just love the non -appliqued one.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea giving a gift for your birthday. I'd like the non applique. Sue
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! Hope you had a great birthday. It sounds like you did. Missed you at Bee today but you are so busy I do not see how you make it to everything and get all of the projects done that you do. I am busy working on my different applique projects and always looking for more. I did finish the top and back of #6 UFO and now I just have to quilt it. I am going to try my hand at machine quilting it myself. Now there is a challenge.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Carrie! Stephanie and Terri sure are sweet.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to be entered in your non-applique giveaway.
Congratulations on your almost-100th post!
