May for Me!



It's May and Marcia is hosting "May for Me" again this year. I had a lot of fun participating last year (you can read about it here) and I decided to sign up again. There will be linky parties and prizes, but most of all, you make a commitment to make some time to play. I think I can manage that, even with working two jobs, feeding 2 kids, taking care of a sick dog, helping to care for a sick brother, and running a household. 
I am going to start the day with some of this.
And then I'm going to treat myself to some relaxing quilt blog surfing. There is so much going on in blog land...
here are some options to enjoy:
*Quiltmaker has released another issue of their wonderful 100 blocks magazine and they are having a blog hop. There are many fun blogs to visit every day and they are giving away loads of magazines, fabric and other treats!  
Between Heaven and Texas Blog Hop


*Maria Bostwick has released another book called "Between Heaven and Texas". The Quilting Gallery is hosting a fun blog hop to celebrate.I already won a copy of the book...woohoo! I have read all her other books, so can't wait to read this one!

I can't wait to read this! I pre-ordered and it is now on my Kindle waiting for me to finish another book. Lots of great hops out in blog land right now.

Congrats on winning Marie's Book. Mine is in the mail, but I'm still hopping with hope to win another copy to share. I get an extra chance today on the 100 Blocks Tour. Marie's Book is one of the prizes there too. Yes, I'm spending way too long on the Blog Tours this week. Happy MAY! I hope the weather is bringing you flowers...
