Also, saw DDIL this morning. We talked about making a big boy quilt for DGS. He is 4 and is really into Legos. Is it bad to buy new fabric with Legos on it?
The way I understand the moratorium is that we can buy fabric that will be used right away. A plus is if you can do stashbusting at the same time.
Y'all will be pleasantly surprised. I spent the the better part an hour in the LQS and bought the 1 1/2 yards I went after. They didn't have what I wanted, but close enough. I have Northcutt's Artisan Spirit Shimmer in Blue Lagoon. I purchased a Northcutt mottled lime green for the background and sashing. A little colorful, for sure, but color trumps dull in my book. Not many choices in small town in Northern Michigan. Now I have something light weight to work after my breast cancer surgery on Tuesday. I don't think I'll be quilting a king size quilt on my 301 for a while.
