Welcome all new people.
tk I hope you find your snowflake fabric. My local JoAnn's is probably wondering if I fell off the face of the earth as I haven't been in there for close to a month.
OK - the basket sounds wonderful. Should do really well at the fundraiser. Your description makes me want it.
I saw the Connecting Threads sale as well. Know you're not alone in the temptation Belfrybat.
Paperprincess - good luck on the DWR. From the way it sounds to me accuracy is everything with it. I'm sure a die would help considerably with piecing.
I have only been working on a few Christmas panel wallhangings lately. Been cleaning house - as in sorting and donating a lot of items. Funny how nothing has left the house from my quilting room and I have no plans for any to go either : )
