Your fabrics are beautiful!

Gorgeous fabrics! Equally gorgeous is the idea of being in Lancaster right now. We're in our 2nd month of record- breaking heat & drought. How fondly I remember my vacation +/- 10 yrs ago in that beautiful section of the country!

You made out like a bandit!!!

Beautiful fabrics! You chose wonderful colors and patterns-enjoy creating some fun projects!

WOW now that is beautiful material, my last trip to Goodwill Pound store was mostly country type materials not full of Batiks like the first trip. Just sit there and study it all and let your mind go walking. A circle in a square would look good with sashing of the small circles or a border and etc. Enjoy...

Love them all!!

Love the great collection of colors, especially the oranges. Not happy that I've seen them this morning because I need some oranges for DGD's orange and cream quilt. I'm slated to go to Lancaster around the 20th and would be able to find whatever I need there but the problem is that I need to have the quilt finished by the 23rd! DGD just decided on her colors so time is limited and I need to start cutting and sewing ASAP. Been to LQS and got one orange fabric but think I'll have to settle for whatever I can find at Joann's. Wonder if they are open today the 4th?

LOVE THE FIRST PICTURE FABRICS AND THE ONESS WITH THE SPOOLS OF THREADS AND SEWING THEMES ARE ADORABLE. THEY ALL ARE AS A MATTER OF FACT. IS THERE ANY FABRIC THAT IS NOT SUPER? LOLOLOL THERE ARE SOME BUT NOT MANY THAT I HAVE COME ACROSS.

Happy Linda 07-04-2011 06:51 AM

You've got your work ahead of you. It'd be fun to see the quilt's you make of these.

GramaLaura 07-04-2011 06:52 AM

Sewing theme fabrics make my heart flutter!

mtrenchard 07-04-2011 07:19 AM

How much fabric did you buy for each set or photo of fabric? Can you remember any of the names of the fabric stores?

Oh, drool. Another vote for the browish with trees,mmmmmm.

dixiechunk 07-04-2011 07:58 AM

Someone (Bonnie Hunter, maybe) said if a fabric is ugly you just haven't cut it into small enough pieces yet. Even the few pieces of fabric I have ever thought were ugly would work in a postage stamp quilt.

Love the trees and the last two pics of fabrics......mouth hanging open!

patimint 07-04-2011 12:21 PM

Those are all very nice and I bet you will think of something to do with all of the fabric.

Tinabug 07-04-2011 01:08 PM

Wow, great shopping spree. Now the fun part.

Sandra in Minnesota 07-04-2011 02:11 PM

Yep, you did some damage in Lancaster, didn't you??

luce321 07-04-2011 02:21 PM

Beautiful fabric.

quiltjoey 07-04-2011 02:26 PM

Wow! You did bring home a lot of "souvenirs". Beautiful!

Sew Freak 07-04-2011 02:30 PM

your selections are awesome. I always have a hard time putting colors together, so when you ladies put pictures out it helps to see the possibilities.

The Quiet Quilter 07-04-2011 03:02 PM

Wow! You have some beauties
there! Hope to see some pics
when you finish some projects.
Hugs, Sharon

smitty 07-04-2011 04:20 PM

I thought you said you did not see anything that said "buy me"----looks like you found a lot !! great shopping trip.

karenpatrick 07-04-2011 05:12 PM

Holy cow, girl. Was there anything left in the shops?

ube quilting 07-04-2011 05:24 PM

Wow! I was surprised to see one of my favorite fabs in your first pic. The funky one at the bottom of the pic. I find a place for it in almost every quilt. Love it!

You had a good day of shopping. Now you are in for some good days of sewing!
peace :D

quiltmom04 07-04-2011 07:06 PM
