Totally understand my stash takes up a huge row of shelves in 8 foot closet then the other closet same size has 6 rubber maid huge tubs the ones you can not see in( to hide from hubby). Then there are other boxes with fat quarters and kits and don't forget the cart with all the baskets holding patterns and another rubber made full of scraps. LOL to much to bring along going to travel light this time :D

How about this for lunch? http://www.quiltingboard.com/recipes...k-t202928.html. The recipe is from QuiltE. Just finished canning two big batches of salsa yesterday and lots of onions left. Might make some cheesy biscuits (ala Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits) to go with it. Nothing like a tummy warming lunch to prepare for the fabric selection. :thumbup:

greeting fellow travelers. I am new on this train ride and excited to go shopping for my fabric. Also I will bring along my spice pumpkin cake to enjoy.

Wow I see the smoke stack on the train puffing and puffing as it waits for us to board. Well......sigh.......My stash is not very big. I will dig and see what I can come up with but I have a feeling that I will have to go shopping before boarding. (sad, I know, smile) The reason I think of out train being an old time one with modern conveniences of course and a top level view part is because I live near Knotts Berry Farm and I hear the train whistle all the time.
I am so excited to get started. I will have to leave for the month of Nov. to fly to Australia but I am not going to look to see what the end results is. I return on the last day of this train ride. But I will send you all some fantastic australian goodies ...like angel wings and lemmikins. I think that is how it is spelt. Maybe we have some down under quilters joining us and they can set me straight. LOL. Off to check what I have.

Nana, you don't need to rush. Just make sure you let me know when the pumpkin cake comes onboard.

OMG I gotta go eat someting, I can't take it anymore. Need some toast with pumpkin butter. I just finished making batchs of pumpkin butter and apple butter (in the crock pot - burn proof) - both go fabulous with cinnamon raisin toast or bagels, with a little bit of cream cheese smeared on as soon as it comes out of the toaster. Yum.

Lurking...lurking...lurking. But I lurked at the last one and kicked myself when I saw y'all's end quilts! I love that pattern. So..... RUNNING TO STASH... pieces to small ... Oh NO!! I'm gonna have to SHOP. Does this train hit any fun quilt stores??

Here is my first pick out of what I have in the stash had a hard time coordinating other choice did not have 1 3/4 yard of 4 fabrics that went well together. And I must shop from the stash so this is my pick for this mystery train ride.

Ooo ooo ooo - frustrated, love that combo! "Lovely to look at, delightful to hold." It's gonna be a beauty!
