Default My Next Project...Oh My!

For a little while I have been contemplating a "Tradewinds" or something like it. Well today I found a plastic box on the bottom shelf with so many 2 1/2 strips I could make at least two of them. The cutting is all done. I just have to start sewing. It's almost like having a partner cut my fabric for me while I sleep. I do not even remember doing it. Neat!

Excellent find!
I found 83 little squares, 4" square, all cut out and neatly bagged and labelled for a quilt pattern I had purchased a couple of years ago. Only problem is...I found the little squares last weekend when I was putting away the excess squares I had leftover from just cutting out 83 little squares for the very same quilt!! So now I guess I'm making 2 quilts!!

There are treasures in those fabric storage areas. I have enjoyed a whole afternoon of just sorting through my closet. Very inspiring! Surely I must like most everything in there since I'm the one who put it there!
