Whew! NJQuilter, sandybeach and Barb44. I'm so relieved. I don't actually piece quilts *did I just say that out loud - here of all places?* I like to applique, hand quilt and that kind of stuff, but I hate to sew on a machine. Does that make sense? I'm not good at it, so I do as little of it as I can get away with. Anyway, I just buy what I need for projects, and I throw away scraps. gasp! So I did make a trip Saturday to Hobby Lobby for sashing for my quilt, and I bought fabric for that only. I saw some lovely fabric with lilacs printed on it that I actually covet, but it's really expensive to buy just to have, so I left it there for someone who knows what to do with it.
