Threefold Fun

Today is special for three reasons.

It's the annual Quilter's Closet and Notional Sale. This morning you'll find me there, minding a table of my own closet contents that I want to purge from my sewing room. Between no longer having an interest in traditional quilts - fabrics, patterns, and books - and discovering many quilting-related items I haven't touched in the past year, this is an opportunity to make room for more things modern! 😄
And today is...

Which I've also learned is InternationalI Quilting Day. How appropriate is that?!

And even more serendipitous... it's my birthday! I'm 64 today. I'm not a bit embarrassed to admit it, or share this unaltered/unfiltered photo of myself.

My friend Karen Kaholly (who I met through our blogs, and face-to-face in Austin, in 2015) sent this card. Isn't it adorable! Thank you Kirstin, Karen's daughter, for making it.

Now I'm off to celebrate however the day unfolds. God knows I am simply grateful to have reached this age! Linda
