Upon leaving the doctor's office we went to JoAnns and I looked for backing fabric for one of my GS's quilts. I didn't find anything I liked, but I happened to spot a lovely spring looking fabric in soft colors - white, and green with tiny pink flower blossoms. I thought it would make a pretty backing for my GGD's baby quilt. I got it home and checked it out. It looked good. I called my Mom to tell her the good news from the doctor and told her about the new fabric. Well, she told me it would be hidden on the back of Sophie's quilt unless it was turned over. So now, I'm going to let this fabric star in its own quilt top and buy different fabric for backing of the baby quilt. When I told my DH, he asked if the new fabric wouldn't work. I told him sure it would, but the new fabric is so pretty it deserves to be a quilt top, too. He said, "OH." I guess, I'm building a stash afterall. What fun! :)
