I Won! and it Arrived Today

Back at the first of the year, I'd made a comment on Barbara at Cat Patches blog for the Quilting Secrets Blog Hop organized by Mrs. Pickles Garden (Dec 31 - Jan 6).  Barbara had a wonderful tutorial on Fusible Applique (found here).

When I checked Barbara's blog on 1/3, I was very surprised to see the winner announced as #9 Lee!  At first, I didn't believe it was me as I have seen others with the name Lee, and had to go back to the comments on the 1st to see if it really, really was...and it WAS! Of course, Barbara had also sent me an email but I hadn't seen that since I don't check it every day.

And this is what I won :) and it arrived in today's mail:

Perfect neutral colors!  Now I need to start a special new project just to use these; I've not used Aurifil before.  I've linked to Aurifil's website if you want to check them out.
Thank you Barbara, thank you Mrs. Pickles, and thank you Aurifil!
