As you may know I turned 50 a couple of weeks ago and made an online celebration of it with the help of some of my favourite shops. (check previous post for all the details and the winners names are now posted) I thought I would give you some of the party highlights, and pictures.
My daughter went all out and with the help of my husband and 2 sons and some great friends gave me a perfect celebration!! Starting with the theme of the party....quilting... perfection!!!

The table was decorated, in my favourite colour purple, with FQs, tulle bobbins, buttons, and a measuring tape....along with fabric roses.

Circles hung on the wall covered with scrapbook paper that looked like fabric.

...and because of my food intolerances, a fabulous fabric cake, Amanda spent hours making. The 50 was a pair of party (sun)glasses, glad she snapped the arms off and used them on the cake, lol!!
I still have it sitting in my kitchen. Eventually I will take it apart and make something with all the FQ but not yet, all that hard work needs to be admired just a bit longer.

From 50 to 1, another Milestone
As some of you who follow my blog will know, my friend Kellie had a little miracle, just over a year ago now. You can read the previous posts here and here, if you are new to my blog and want to catch up.
Well it is hard to believe that a year has passed already!! But it has and Caleb just celebrated his first birthday (6 days after my 50th!!) (had so hoped he would be born on my birthday!!) He is the happiest baby I have ever known and those eyes and eyelashes...... so in love.....here are a few of the pictures I took when we went to celebrate...he had his own little cake and he was liking it....a lot, lol

What a celebration! A great way to start the next 50 years. Congratulations. Caleb is so cute. Those eyes and eyelashes are heart stoppers. He is going to have to be very diligent to keep the girls (and moms) at bay.
