I usually don't under=dye but I didn't figure on scalloping the edges so now I need more. And, the other planned to work on project just isn't calling me today. So, I'll do handwork later in the evening.
Oh my! I hope things start going the right way now.

I realized that I had fat quarters to make a "Yellow Brick Road" quilt in beautiful pinks and greens. I am cutting it out and, hopefully, can start joining pieces before the day is over. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Glad we could inspire you!! i love that pattern, it was the very first quilt I ever made 10 years ago (and a King size to boot! I have NEVER made a quilt that big again! LOL) Can't wait to see pics!!
