And then it hit me

I was at the Insurance company this afternoon, signing some checks and some papers. I had to sign and date them. That's when it hit me. Tomorrow. I'm turning 30.

I'm not exactly the 30 something I wanted to be. I'm disappointed at the things I haven't accomplished. And grateful for the things I have done, and thrilled that even though I thought it as a kid, Life doesn't end at 30.

30? Why did I think you were younger than me?

Happy Birthday, my dear friend! Wish I had known earlier (okay, I probably did!). Lots of love is coming your way!

Happy Birthday. I hope that you can see, as we all do that the things you HAVE accomplished are much greater and meaningful than those you haven't.

Love you!

I wasn't sure what was the best way to answer your questions. I bought all the fabric with another pattern in mind. There wasn't enough contrast though so I started looking for other ideas. I ran across this and decided to go for it. I didn't have a pattern but I loved the look. /http://thepatternbasket.blogspot.com/2009/05/sew-pretty.html
I had a layer cake and cut it all into thirds (each piece is 10"x 3 1/4") I didn't need to cut it all. I have quite a bit left over. I am now sewing it and then there will be two borders, a small inner border and a larger outer border.
