At that yard sale the woman was a quilter and had LOTS of fabric. I restrained myself and bought the charms and a 7 yard piece of fabric that I can eventually use for backings. I used a
variegated Aurifil thread (pink/blue/yellow/green rainbow). A while ago I bought a sampler pack of variegated thread. One was browns, one was greys and one was the rainbow. I didn't think I would like the rainbow, but it turns out it is very cool and I have used it on a couple of quilts. Adds a little something something :-). Thanks for your kind words.
