(duh, that's the reason I bought it. right? - at least I'm pretty sure that was my intention when I fell in love with it.)

SO.. DMIL was here from Indiana last week.
(sweating her booty off in S.E. Texas!)
I took her to a quilt shop in Old Town Spring.
It's stacked 3 and 4 bolts high throughout 2 houses.
ALL Moda fabric.

Well.. I made a decision.
I bought 3 charm packs and 2 cuts of coordinating fabric.
I've given myself express permission to CUT this fabric and MAKE something of it!
Come hell or high water, I'm determined to make a lap quilt for myself.

It feels kinda good to assert myself to do one for ME for a change. :)

Code:
 Of course...now I'm feeling a little guilty and selfish. UGH! What a complex.
Anyone else ever have/had a problem making something for yourself?
As soon as I stop laughing at the familiarity of this situation, I'll post a reply....
