Oooo, I was in fabric heaven this morning. I stopped by Lone Star Mercantile this morning
http://www.lonestarmercantile.blogspot.com/ It's a shop that sells only reproduction fabrics, wool and antiques. She had a ton, and I mean a TON of fat quarters at $1.50. Have you ever wanted to lie down in fabric and just smother yourself? This fabric shop is unlike any I've ever seen. ALL the patterns, books, fabrics, wool fabrics, rug hooking and antiques focus on the 1800's. She teaches wool rug hooking, and she has a large number of clients that hook beautiful pieces. This is a wallhanging, very small, and wouldn't it be perfect leaning on a bookshelf?

... and this is a small rug. [ATTACH=CONFIG]326171[/ATTACH]
I just might have to learn rug hooking, it's lovely artwork.
They were holding 1 more Civil War Journals quilt kit for me and I picked it up today. This second kit is for the bedsize quilt. The first 'kit' I started in January, and is coming as a BOM, for the 4 smaller quilts... although I've broken up those blocks, added photo transfer blocks and they'll make 5 smaller quilts now.
Happy sewing this week!
