I am in love with your fabric. Please post pics when you get it pieced. It's going to be lovely.

I'll see if I can put a picture on that we made for one in our group, very simple. She only needs a large lap size.

"what is a ripping blade?" Thinking it amazing that he knew of a quilting tool that I didn't know about...
"to cut the length you use a ripping blade on the saw. That cuts the length of the grain. If you are cutting the width of the wood, you use a cross cut saw. So, a ripping blade to rip the length of the wood and a cross cut to cut the width."
"Right...um...you know I'm talking about fabric right?"

This is why I love this man so much! He is simply amazing in every way...including his sense of humor!

Are you married to MY husband? Sounds just like him.

The fabric line is from Joann's Fabric. If you search "Andover" on the Joann's site you will find it. I just searched it and found another fabric that I didn't see at the store. Might have to buy it for my quilts.....*somebody stop me...PLEASE!*

It's too late, you have been bitten by the fabric bug (no cure, :lol: )

Wow, those are gorgeous fabrics! I think the striped floral would make a very interesting border cut the width of the fabric.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product!
