Fun, Fun, Fun

I can't even begin to tell you how much fun I had at Sharon's...OMG...she is the hostess with the mostest...my room was so comfortable, quilts on the bed to keep me warm, her pretty pink bathroom, yummy meals, trips to the quilt shops and quilt show, party with Blogland friends, teaching me how to crochet, sewing all day for 2 days in our PJ's...I ask you could it get any better? We had the best time...I know I haven't laughed so hard in a very long time. Anyone would have thought that we had known each other for years. We were a perfect fit from moment 1...



Here are a couple of pictures from the Blogland Friend party on Friday night...oh my was that ever fun...see the basket of goodies...Sharon made those gift bags that she made for everyone...Sharon sure knows how to throw a party.

Saturday morning we got up and went to San Diego and visited Country Loft...oh my what a great shop...look at this stitchery we found there...can't wait to get this one going.



Sunday was a very relaxing day...we spent the day in our PJ's...watching football, I was crocheting and Sharon was sewing bindings down...OMG she got so much binding done she ended up with a hole in her finger...she doesn't like thimbles. Here's our lunch...will you look at the size of these calzones...and these aren't considered large...the delivery person came and the house instantly smelled good. Oh and was it ever yummy...

We got this pattern at Quilter's Coop in Temecula, cut it out Thursday night and started sewing...we finished our quilts on Monday, our second day in PJ's all day...this pattern is by Darlene Zimmerman and it was so much fun to do. We both said we'd make another one of these.

I'm going to close for now because I'm afraid I may be pressing my luck with Blogger and all these pictures...Sharon taught me how to get more than 4 pictures on a post...YIPPEE! Hopefully it works...I'll be back tomorrow with a picture of my cute little Annie that Sharon had waiting for me...she really did give me this little Annie...I promise I didn't kidnap her. And I have to show you the wonderful package I got from Karen over at My Yellow Farmhouse...I won a drawing that she was holding and it was a great prize.
We'll talk tomorrow.

I sure could go for one of those gigantic calzones right now!!! It's freezing here. My hands have been frozen all day long. Loved having you and can't wait till me get together in April.

What a delightful week you and Sharon had - it's been so much fun to read about your adventures. I love the quilt you two made. Very cute!

Perry said...

I believe there are still some strange lights from Orlando way in the sky. Is there some residiual jumping going on? lol...I am so glad you had a good time; both of you looked like you had been friends forever. Isn't it nice to be so compatible in such a short time? Quilt is really cute, and you finished it fast. It would take me at least 2 weeks to do.one. Sounds like there is a return trip in the future.
