You are quite welcome. I am totally amazed that you got them so quickly with the postage mix up I had. I'm thrilled to just get them out of my house and to someone who would appreciate them. Didn't even make a dent in my stash.

Doing pretty good a little fall here or maybe just a toe off the wagon hehehe. Found a great flannel flat sheet in a terrific pattern at a used store it looked brand new so I got it for rag quilts. And at the second thrift store found two yards of a great Halloween fabric for four bucks could not leave it behind not sure just yet of what I will do with it but I liked it.

i'm on vacation this week and visited a quilt shop. All I truly needed was a couple of fat qtrs. to use in this months color/design challenge. They had a couple fabrics that would work, but only on bolts. So I resisted. They must have a Judy Neimeyer certified teacher. Lots of her patterns in stock and 2 of her quilts (quilted even) were up in their classroom. It was very temping to grab one of her patterns as a souvenier from this trip, but I resisted. I need to plan extra space in my carryon bag next time.

What is it about this time of year? I fell under the spell of Connecting Threads. I not only succumbed to the Kaliadscope line but since they had a daily deal of 20% off all fabrics I bought a lot from their clearance section. I was being so good, well not any more.

DH and I went to the PIQF today. What an AMAZING show - still reeling from all the inspiration. You will be shocked I'm sure that the ONLY fabric that made its way into my bag was 2 F8 packs for a friend of mine. I did buy some cards, a circular cutter from Olfa, a chenille brush, a ruler and 15000 yards of YLI bobbin thread. (That sounds like a lot but it was only 3 cones.) I think I deserve a high 5 for this control.

Martina, I am totally impressed, both by your will power & the fact that you got your husband to go!
