I'm so excited!! (Okay--who isn't when the soft packages arrive! :roll: )
dreamer sent me these links--so thank you, dreamer!!
These are mostly from www.fabricshack.com, some are from Suzanne's quilt shop--I'll have to get the website if you're interested.
Everything has a purpose! :D
And for mini horse foal enthusiasts--there's something adorable at the end. :wink:
I'm planning on a black and white quilt with splashes of bright color. I haven't picked the two blocks I'll use, but I can't wait to start it. I think I'm going to add gray fabrics to it, also. I already have collected a few black and whites, and brights, but here's what just arrived.

Check out that one in the middle unfolded--it's one piece--but made of strips! I thought that would add a different dimension. :lol:
Here's another look at that one:

Here's a close up of the others--same as above. I'm a little concerned about the one that's slightly creamy looking--as I want white, but I'll see how it looks. Maybe I'll use it in a square with a bright yellow splash.

Here is my favorite black and white of all--oohhhhh, I LOVE this one!!

I thought this one would add a different look, but I'm not sure I'm going to use it for this particular quilt--I'll think on it. It almost needs blocks/ wall hanging of its own--with rainbow splashes. :wink:

Okay--here are some splashes!! They look so awesome on the above pieces!! :D :D :D

Some others--this is a reddish flannel for upcoming raggeds, and a cotton fall one to boost my scrap fallish quilt top...

And, last, but not least, a few select--very inexpensive, as in $2.50 a yard :shock:, florals. I have a plan to make a scrappy floral log cabin some day... and I needed a few more hues.

And, this is what else arrived today...new foal blankets for wee ones due in the spring. :D :D :D :D I tried making some two years ago--and they were a lot of fuss work and too small! :roll: I was happy to buy them this year. :wink:

At Jo-Ann's this week I bought four new rulers--all square: 4.5", 6", 12.5", and 15". I didn't think I needed that many, but they were 60% off! So--I brought them all home. :D
Right now I'm working on Mark's CW top. I have all 20 easy squares done, and 8 out of 30 star squares ready... I'll post once I have more stars done. :D Two more days before school starts again....
Thanks for sharing my excitement!! :D
