Welcome to the Sew Fresh Quilts pit stop on the Giving Thanks - Quilters' Blog Hop Party!
Glad to see you made it!


Giving Thanks is the theme for this Giveaway.
I think it is certainly appropriate that the first person I give thanks to would be Michelle!

on Michelle's blog.  So make sure you check that out and visit
all the other bloggers hosting great prizes!

I sure do appreciate each one of you and I want to Thank You - for all you do!
Your kind and caring comments cheer me on, cheer me up, and inspire me. 



For those of you who are visiting for the very first time - I want to Thank You too.
For stopping in today!  I am sew glad you're here!
Let me give you a brief tour of the Sew Fresh Quilts blog.


That's me up on the right, smiling proudly with my two fun loving kids!
