BTW: I tried Dream 80/20 and Really like how it handles. It is so much softer than W&N and Hobbs. I can highly recommend it.
MadQuilter, I love all the different battings by Quilters Dream. Their QD Orient (bamboo) has the nicest drape of anything else I've every used!! And I'm getting ready to use QD Wool on the Lone Star quilt.
I've actually had to do some rearranging in the sewing room after all - the heater technician was supposed to come this week to look at re-doing some duct-work. This (again) resulted in me "finding" more goodies that I'd forgotten about. I posted on the UFO thread about the Dresden plates that I'm now working on, you can hop over there to see the pics. But it all (again) reminded me of Why I'm in the moratorium!!!!!!!! LOL!
One a much less happy note, my furbaby, "Cowboy", is not expected to live much longer. He's a little white and tan Chihuahua, and I've had him over 12 years. Vet says she thinks he ate something that's poisoned his system, and surgery is beyond the reach of my pocketbook, as we're still paying on hubby's surgery from several months ago. She gave me some meds for him, but it will probably end by Monday. This is slowly killing me, emotionally. He's my baby.
