Thank You, Thank You!

So things have been pretty slow around here on the crafty side of things. I didn't even get a chance to work on my sewing machine since Sunday's crafty day at Nic's. I came home Sunday evening and both my sons were now feeling feverish and sick with colds. :( And then the rest of the week, there my sewing machine sat with the cover still on. :( As I was busy with the boys, taking them to the doctors, cuddling, and babying each of them at their times of need, I have neglected my Google Reader during the week. And didn't even know that I was selected as a WINNER for the Quiltstory Block Party Contest! Seriously!! Remembered when I entered in my three blocks over here.. Well the Modern block style won the runner-up and I won $25 towards Fresh Squeezed Fabrics. (Which I LOVE this shop and just bought some fabrics last month from them!) There were 73 blocks total in this category, with three winners selected. So flipping cool! And I get this cute little badge to put on my blog as well. :)

And the winning block(s):

I, in fact, still need to make two more squares like this to complete my pillow front. Hoping to finish this up early next week and bring it to our Ann Arbor Modern Quilt Guild meeting on Wednesday. :)
