Everyone's quilts are great, and you all are doing so well. I had a slight setback in the past couple days. My friend came to stay from Wed. to Friday afternoon so we could do lots of sewing on our various projects. Right when she arrived Wed. afternoon, the sewing machine repairman called to tell me my Aria was ready to be picked up, and since I needed backing for one of my big quilts, we quick hopped in her car and went out to pick up the machine and peruse the fabric at our fave LQS. I wasn't able to find what I wanted/needed so we went to another store nearby, Goods. I found the perfect fabric for $7.99 a yard. Since I needed 9 yards, I was limited in what I could choose based on how much was on the bolts. I found a good one and bought the whole thing, all 13 yards. Since it is a Kansas Troubles I will find lots of uses for the extra fabric. And I found my rusty brown crackle I have been trying to find, so I finished off that bolt also, about 4 yards. I ask you, how many shops carry Moda fabric for $7.99 a yard? Not many, I would think. Anyhow, my friend also pays me in fabric for quilting her quilts. She went to a newly re-opened fabric shop that is about halfway between us. She found a bunch of fabric for $4 a yard, nice quality too. So I am now the proud owner of 4 more bolts of yardage that will make great backings or blenders. I think there is at least 6 yards on each bolt. But she was impressed with the empty spaces on my shelves. When we were looking at all the gorgeous fabrics at Goods, I jokingly looked at my friend and said "Fabric Moratorium be damned." But I was proud that I only got what I needed, with a little extra for another project.
