It's my Birthday and I'll give if I want to

51? I always thought I'd feel old by the time I got here. Silly me!  Terry and I still flirt and joke around like teenagers. Growing older (rather than old) is pretty fantastic when you have a wonderful partner in the journey. I'm a very lucky woman.

To celebrate, I thought I'd do something for you: 

For the next week (yes, week), more specifically until midnight Eastern Time on Thursday January 26, you get a free pattern of equal or lesser value for every "for personal use only" edition you purchase in my Etsy shop.  Don't put the free pattern(s) in your shopping cart, please - just let me know during check out what I should send you.

And what's a post without a photo?  Hard to believe this was taken 33 years ago today, on my 18th birthday...

Be well and get going and remember to celebrate ALL the days you get!
