Birthday Loot!!!

Today's my birthday and I must admit that it's been a good one. My Hubby suprised me with a little Bday celebration on yesterday and I received much love from friends and family. More importantly I turned another year older and I'm thankful for all of God's blessings in my life. I'm thankful for life's experiences and the wisdom I'm hoping I've gained from them. I have a great family, wonderful friends and I'm priveledge to know and interact with such wonderful people as you. What more can a girl ask for. Well.........I must admit that gifts are icing on the cake. So here's a few little gifts that I got for myself and received from others. I'm super easy to please and am a simple Girl at heart. So these gifts were PERFECT!!! The foot scrubber I received from a friend was a hilarious gift!!!

Out of this pile of stuff, here's my sewing loot up close.....

If you recall a couple of posts ago I won a Velvaboard and Point Press & Clapper off of Ebay. I bought the "Couture Sewing  Techniques" book after hearing rave reviews from Sew Hot Mommi and Erica. I bought the Claire Shaeffer "Couture Techniques Workshop Basics" dvd. And finally the Wonderful Alethia sent me draping tape in response to this post (thanks Alethia, that was SO thoughtful)!!!! So I'm pretty happy with all of my sewing loot!!!

So it's been a WONDERFUL birthday!!! Another year older and with some cool new sewing supplies. I can't wait to use my sewing gear. I think I may have to pop in those DVD's on tomorrow.........
