I checked the mail.
All day.
And again.
I didn't see anything in the mail until I left to a friend's house that night to watch The Bachelorette finale. Lo and behold, there was a FedEx mailer sitting by our back door! I grabbed it up and hopped in the car to Stacy's so I could rip it open. There was my book!
So . . . this is me last night.
Imagine my surprise when today's mail just gets even better! I got a knock-knock on the door just after lunch.

I don't even have words to describe it. But like the card says, I know these are my friends. These wonderful, creative people believed in me and my little idea enough to bring it to life! And in such a perfect way.

This card that came with the book summed it all up for me. I am so thankful that I got the chance to visit C&T in May and have lunch with Michele, Alice, Kristy, Gailen and Amy . . . the incredible ladies on my book team!

Pinch me. This is a book! I am so proud of the work that went into this book. I can't say enough "thank yous" to the 11 other quilters I was so lucky to work with! They were crazy enough to come along with me on this ride, and I'm so grateful for them.
Coming soon to a bookstore near you, or be sure to pre-order your copy on Amazon!
I'm planning a little series to coordinate with Craft Book Month at Craft Buds this September to spill the beans on the book-making process. So leave me a comment if there's anything you'd like to hear more about, and I'll be sure to tell all!
