I found my lost pieces, now to find time to work on them. A...

Carpenter Wheel, but I like star better. I never saw it coming either and I've done one. I am anxious to complete mine because it will look so different with pastels. I do love the dark ones.

chefbwarner, those are lovely fabrics. I'm enjoying all the color combos. Mina are cut out, but I don't feel like I can sew them until I finish FMQ the quilt on the machine(s).

Di, don't look for the WOW. I haven't been to the QS I purchased it from yet. Melissa is good about restocking or ordering. She ordered a full bolt of a fabric when I needed a half yard. I have to be...

Oh, oh. When pressing my fabrics, I discovered I only have a yard of background. Any excuse for a trip to the fabric store, LOL. It's just a WOW so if I can't match it, I can replace it easily (I...
