    Default It's nice to come home to a surprise

    Back to work today after a week off and I had a package waiting for me. (I have things delivered to the office so they don't sit on the porch waiting for me or tempting someone else.) I remembered ordering the Farmer's Wife CD for EQ6 from Quilt In a Day. But it was a big package and I had forgotten what else I ordered. Oh yeah, it was two scrap bags of batik fabrics. Each bag contained one pound of scraps, approx. 3 yards of fabric. Most of the scraps were fat eighth size, with a couple of fat quarter or larger. There were also strips varying in size from one inch to about 3 inches. What a happy surprise. I'm very pleased with the selection. The cost was $12 per bag.

    I look forward to packages coming to my house so I order a lot of them. LOL. I've been ordering more of my grocery basics online this last year for six months at a time and all my clothes and shoes from one brand. Sure saves money to order more fabric packages!

    I love seeing a package waiting for me at my front door when I get home. Right now I'm waiting for a kit from McCall's and I'm dying to see it when it arrives. The only thing I look forward to seeing more when I get home is my dog.

    NICE! I love scrape bags.

    BellaBoo - did you make the quilt in your avatar? Is this your own design or what would the pattern name be?
    Thanks!
