I don't know about anyone else, but I'll drag out my birthday celebration as long as possible. My husband put an end to birthday month last year - too much pressure on him I think. So this year I got birthday week. I have a number of friends with March birthdays, so there is still plenty of celebrating. My mom was kind enough to give me a number of crafty items for my birthday. I think most of them were picked up while we were on the quilt run a few weeks back.
Of course...Frank wanted to get in on the picture taking.
And speaking of that quilt run, I had picked up a Mother Goose panel to make a book for an upcoming one-year birthday party. In typical fashion I got all of the supplies but waited to start the project until the morning of the party. I was proud that a few times I ripped out a couple seams and went back to make sure they were straight - something I never would have done a year ago. It turned out far from perfect, but was absolutely made with love.

I also love to quilt, stamp, paint, scrapbook and read.
I thought I was reading about me when I saw that you are a 'collector' of crafty items. I do the same thing. I buy so many things and don't use them as much as I should. It's still fun to try them out though.
Have a great day! Love your blog and crafty items too!
