    I got a little crazy on line shopping this week. I am now impatiently awaiting an order from Connecting Threads where I finally decided to check out their batiks and try out their new thread for LA. I also splurged on some YLI silk thread for applique. Then on to the Cotton Loft as I was in desperate need of neutral lights, I went craziest there as their prices just can't be beat and finally quilting stencils.com in preparation of receiving my friends CW tribute quilt to LA.

    I'm waiting for a CT box to arrive too! I have the CT batik line and it is very nice. You won't be disappointed. Did you notice there was a sale on the batting joining fusible tape last week? That stuff saves me more money then it costs. One thing to keep on your wish list is the do nut full of bobbin each a different color of Masterpiece thread. It is so nice to have a color to match most any small hand sewing job.

    You'll love the CT batiks. They're the first batik I really like. And their thread is fantastic, haven't had any issues at all. I love everything about CT. And I'm also waiting on an order from them.

    Fun fun fun!!!!!!!!!! I love getting packages from them as well.
    Today I had a totally frustrating outing at Joann's. They NEVER have what I am looking for. I don't buy much fabric there but notions and stuff that people on the board recommend.
    I love finding and buying online!
