a texas-sized housewarming gift!

let me just say that i have THE most talented, generous, wonderful friends ever!  when i returned from my trip to omaha i had a package from lindsey waiting for me.  i tore it open and much to my surprise (and absolute joy) she had made me a quilt as a housewarming present!

don't you just love it!?!?  i do!  i love the colors, the shapes, everything about it!  i am so completely amazed and blown away by the skills of my dear friend who has only been quilting for less than 6 months!  you have so much talent lindsey, thank you for sharing it with me and my family.

even the back has a fun little splash of color.

the minute i saw it i knew exactly where it was going to live - on the back of our poor old couch that used to live in our basement at our old plaec but now has been upgraded to first floor living space again.  

it fits perfectly!  and the weather has pleasantly taken a turn for the cooler temps so sooner than later i'll be trying it out, snuggling away under my perfectly amazing lindsey quilt!

thank you lindsey - i couldn't possibly love you or the quilt more!
