Merry Christmas to Me ~ Thanks Mom & Dad!!

I must be dreaming! I actually won a quilt top on Ebay and it was very reasonable! I used my Christmas gift card that I got from my parents and it came in the mail today. I LOVE, LOVE, Love it! The only issue I have is, it smells like cigarette smoke!

 It's twin size and I think it will look awesome on my old iron bed. It is the Grandmother's Garden pattern. It is very similar to the one I wanted to buy at a garage sale at the end of summer. The sale where the seller changed her mind and decided to keep it.



It doesn't have any stains, or rips...just the stinky smell. I don't really want to wash it, because I'm afraid the stitches might come loose. Any suggestions on getting rid of the stink? I can hang it outside to air out once the weather cooperates and stops raining. I just draped it over my tablecloth rack in the sun room for right now.



I got off work early, and was planning to go to a couple of sales, but it was yucky-rainy out and my GPS was being dumb, and I didn't feel like driving-so I went home and now, I'm sitting here itching to go to a sale-LOL!

I thought about running out to the Mega Mall, I've heard they have new management and a lot of new dealers and I've wanted to check it out, but I didn't feel like making the drive today. Maybe tomorrow. I don't see any great sales that are worth driving to for the weekend, so I might just have to get my fix at Mega Mall.

Or, maybe I'll just stay home with a good book...
