I'm glad there is a BD exemption ...i'm a July baby...and my 2 girls giggled over the Fancy Fox pattern and wanted me to make it. But alas, I have no modern fabrics, so I bought some. The kids are shocked I will quilt something out of my comfort zone. But gosh, it felt good to buy something ., even though I justified it by saying it was something THEY wanted. Am I living in denial? I confess, I am a fabricaholic, and I almost made it a year. Now, back to the crumbs.

Walked by the fabric aisle and this green jumped out at me. HAD to buy some. When I bent down to pick up my purse, I had a good laugh. The green fabric I bought was almost identical to my skirt. No wonder it jumped out at me. AND, I plan to use it on a round robin I am working on.
