I have a lot of FQ bundles. I love Log Cabins made with a kazillion different fabrics. I love scrappy quilts.

A good many of the FQ bundles are from Connecting Threads. Seeing the fabrics up close and personal when they arrive gives me the chance to decide if I want yardage of any of the fabrics.

We live out here in the middle of nowhere where the fabric choices are very limited unless you want Hawaiian fabrics or Asian fabrics or Batiks. Luckily I love Batiks and Asian and you can bet I buy anywhere from a yard to five yards of my favorites especially during sales. (And, yes, I do buy Hawaiian fabrics).

We are on the mainland once a year visiting family and I buy yardage in the quilt shops there.
