Friday I came home and wanted a great, quiet and restful weekend. And Saturday I went to Agnes for her birthday. So actually, I didn't check my blog during a day or so.
Saturday afternoon I opened my blog and saw that 800 visits were paid to my blog. I didn't get it, thought it was a hacker or spam. And then I saw that all these visits came from the AQS Facebook page and I was announced Blog of the week winner! So many people visited my blog these days and I hope a lot of people will come back!
The rest of the weekend was quiet. I went to Agnes' birthday, worked on my blog and on some other projects that need to be done. And I took a big step in cleaning my quilt room, because shoes and paint were everywhere. Doesn't this room look great now? Happy that everything is in its spot again. Nope. Haven't got a before picture. Otherwise I would be part of the next episode of Hoarders.
You may miss a big closet full of stash on the picture. That´s because I have none. Those white boxes are all I have. In the Netherlands prices are way higher than in the US. Where Americans now are complaining about 12$ a yard, we pay in our LQS usually 18-20$ a yard and prices are rising to 24$ a yard. So travelling to the US pays out when buying enough fabric there!
So now you know why I wrote a book and want to publish it in the US so badly. I have to build stash!
Have fun quilting!

Congratulations with your blog-award!
I think it is well-earned, because
of the many useful and interesting
things you write about, like the
notions, the limelight-posts and,
thank goodness, nothing like how-to-
bake-an-applepie (others may like that, but I really skip them).

I use the same boxes. For my current projects, to keep track of them.
PS. Congrats on book and blog award!
Van harte gefeliciteerd, Annemart en geheel verdiend! Geniet er maar van.
