The (bloggy) universe somehow knew

I was born at the wrong time of year.
Today's my birthday.  But the hubs has to go to work (and by work I mean about 12 hours... and his last day off was Steiger's birthday party day...which I'm glad he took...April is a little easier than May).

Growing up, Dad always had to work on this day too.
Just one of the joys of the farming life.

But I think that the bloggy universe knew of my husbandless birthday plight, and decided to chip in.

First, I won a stashbuster quilt from Emily at Celebrate Today!

Then I won *the* hexagon ruler for the hexagon quilt-along from Leah at Burgundy Buttons! 

THEN I won 4 yards of Rural Jardin fabric from Bev at 44thstreetfabric!  (I've got a tutorial for that line coming up later in the month). :)

If that wasn't enough, I went to spend my Victoria's Secret reward (this girl's undergarment needs have been changing lately), and found out I had won $50 of store credit!

Here's my loot.

Here was Steiger with his little quilt.

And this is the closest anyone will get to seeing my underwear online.

Carmen, the shop owner from HoneyRun quilters  is also having a giveaway (jelly roll and charm pack)!  I'll be going to her shop today... (she's having a sale... almost as good as a giveaway).  

Maybe I'll be lucky once again though.
