It was the blue batik with the gold on the back. I bought 3 yards and she took the rest. There was just 1 1/4 yards left and she was mad that I didn't half it with her. Sorry lady but I needed it.
They are having a big sale and I got a panel with four stocking on it. Instead of making it just two front and back stockings I am going to make 4 with different backgrounds. These are big stockings adn I got the whole panel for $3.50.
Selecting the fabric for our quilts should be fun and certainly not stressful. What began as a pleasant experience as you dreamed of the quilt you were making for your son, suddenly turned ugly. I am so sorry you had to deal with that. You found it first, and she will just have to deal with it. Love your idea for the stockings.
