I am traveling on business and left the house today a little late so was worried about making it to the airport on time. As I raced out teh door, I found propped outside my batiks from Fabric Depot and I DIDN"T HAVE TIME TO OPEN IT!

It was a hard choice - make the flight or open the package - I am still trying to decide if I made the right decision. :-(

Will you be able to find any quilt shops or fabric stores where you are traveling to?

This will help you feel better.

I won't have time to find a quilt shop but sure would like to. Maybe I could just shop online tonight for comfort!

I think that the pack of fabric would have made the trip with me...of course I'm all about the instant gratification -oops- Just think what a nice return you will have with it just waiting for you!!!

That is sad. You do have the anticipation of what waits for you when you get home.

NCMtnHigh 02-16-2010 09:26 PM

Oh... the anticipation. I ordered over $300 of batiks before I left Dec 21. Didn't return home for 6 weeks. I jumped on those packages as soon as I walked in the door.

My thought exactly!

I got home late last night and the first thing I did was open my package. It was worth the wait! I was going to post pictures of the newest members of the stash as requested, but DH left early this morning for an overseas business trip of his own and took the camera. Sorry. You just have to trust me when I say that I am thrilled with everything and now want to order more.

Thanks for the encouragement and support while I was waiting to return. :)

Batiks and you couldn't take them with you!!! I would have. they wouldn't have been lonely that way.

amma 02-19-2010 12:34 PM

I love their batiks :D:D:D I am glad that you are happy with the ones that you ordered!!! What a great welcome home treat :D:D:D

I love batiks and plan to start a new venture with them. Really want to "landscape" quilt using batiks... meaning streams, mountains, trees, old barns, etc. Think that would be a challenge and a lot of applique and paper piecing fun.

I'm not at all artistic when it comes to drawing or painting, so I figure I'll be the only one to recognize my "work of art" !!! but that's okay...

This, by far, is my favorite site for batiks. Try them. ... www.batiks.com

You sure have self-control! You KNOW we are going to want to see pictures when you get back. :-)
