I'm sure there are a million things I need to share, or at least five (you know how I exaggerate). Instead, I'm going to share my awesome day. Today I went to the World Quilt Show Florida with my besties, Nancy and Natalie. It was a great day, seriously, anytime you can spend the day with your best friends, shopping and looking at quilts, it has to be a great day, right?!! Here's a link to the awards page on Mancuso's website.
