In Heaven....

In HEAVEN because one of my idols in the prim world.Cheri Payne..with whom my idol worship goes back even BEFORE prim...when I bought all her painting books when I still had my skill saw and belt sander lol. Shes the most talented artist ever, and Iam beyond excited that we did a trade!!!! NOW I told her to send me WHATEVER she wanted....anything from her would be delightful and treasured!!!! I never in my wildest dreams imagined she would send me the sample for her quilt in Primitive Quilts!!!!!!!!! Im on cloud nine and shall remain there for quite a while. I just hope she likes what I sent her!!?!?!?!
Its SO awesome.... I love that quilt so much I want to marry it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK in other news...remember a couple of posts ago when I said I was not going to buy any new purses for an entire year???

I love that sample she sent you. The colors are right up my alley. That purse is gorgeous. I can see why you love it so. Are you going to the IKEA in COvina next week? Maybe we can meet up if I am free the day you are going. Of course that is if you want to. Let me know.

Lucky you! The quilt is a beaut! The purse is not so bad either, (I hope it was a great price, too!). I'm sure she will like your swap, Deb, especially if it's some of your Annies, they are so sweet prim ~

Oh my heck....you lucky THANG!!! I adore Cheri's work - and this quilt is positively, absolutely, AMAZING!!! Great...now I have a serious case of quilt envy. And gorgeous purse (and accessory pieces) too. Hey - if you're going to fall off the wagon, you might as well do it in style - and I'd say you've done it in high style. And, Yay! it actually made it 10 days into the new year! ;o) Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin (Yup, I'm running WAY behind here in blogging....)
