Oksewglad: Pressing the seams open? Wow but I suppose that does cut down on a lot of bulk.

I made a quick but ‘hard on the pocketbook’ jump today. I stopped at SRHarris just to look around. I ended up with 14.63 yards of fabric and 3 booklets of Turning Twenty patterns. I guess I must have been in the buying mood after successfully completing my trip to Social Security and getting lost because I didn’t think my GPS should aim me for a gravel pit. Lol. My son figures there was a street to cut over on the road before I got to the pit but I wasn’t about to find out.

However, I bought 6 half yards for a baby quilt. I saw a sample at my LQS with an ABC panel cut apart and framed with the Timeless Treasures dotted fabric. I bought the panel last fall and now have enough for strips to go around each ABC block I hope. The quilt will eventually be for my grandson.

Then I bought neutrals of army green, a small patterned green, a solid gray, and a patterned darker gray. I have been using the army green in my quilts to calm the bright ones down.

So, all in all, I do have a plan for them.
