I went to JoAnns today and was thrilled to get fat quarter blender bundles for 3.49 a piece (plus my 15% teacher discount.) I am thinking I might have to make a really colorful quilt with black as the background. Hmmm. Anyway, I might have to go back on Monday to get more. It seems harder and harder to get blenders at a chain store and even at the LQS to get ones that go so well together unless it is a big shop. Then, you have to pull from several areas.

My newest purchase

I have bought these before and I love all of the ways they can be used :D:D:D

MistyMarie 07-02-2010 01:28 PM

SO any suggestions on a pattern? I would love to be able to use all the colors in one quilt.

I'd do a trip around the world.

Love those colors, wish our closest Joannes wasn't 2 hours away.

If I did this right this link should take you to the 2009 BOM called "A Touch of Amish" which I was downloading all last year, & would love to have the kind of fabrics you got to do.

I'm thinking of going to a dyeing class at the Quilting in the Pines camp next week in Flagstaff just because not only would I get to play w/dyeing fabrics, but would end up w/my own for this quilt. Don't know that I will, but the thought is nice... Now if Joanne's was around the corner, this sale would make a much cheaper option...

I guess what you need to do is click on the "for members" in the toolbar (after "about us" & "Cabin news"), scroll down to "Block of the month", then select "2009" to see the blocks.

Wow, those are so pretty. I need to get over there this weekend.

MinnieKat 07-02-2010 05:26 PM

I need those for a stained glass quilt I'm going to make for my DD's 40th birthday!

MinnieKat 07-02-2010 05:28 PM

The pattern is in the book Turning Twenty Simply Sashed. It looks like it will be quick and easy.

dkabasketlady 07-02-2010 06:26 PM

Very nice bright blenders!!! Looks like a great sale!

softpatches 07-02-2010 06:37 PM

Just a thought, go on line & order them----Before they opened the Joann's in OB, MS I ordered all the time with great luck---Lots of time they offer free shipping but you would need to get on the mailing list---

I think an Amish quilt would be gorgeous with those beautiful fabrics! I'm on my way.................... heheh :D

Beautiful blenders. You will enjoy using them.

Deb watkins 07-03-2010 08:37 AM

Boy, that sure is a nice bunch of fabric! I have the flyer, and since I need some more Warn and Natural...hmmmmm and I have the 15% teacher discount as well. Guess where I am headed!

sueisallaboutquilts 07-03-2010 12:00 PM

Thanks, MistyMarie!! I went and got some~!!!!!! :D

TexasRose 07-03-2010 01:08 PM

I really like the solids.
I think they would make a beautiful Kaleidoscope quilt.
Too bad there is no Jo-Ann's near me.

Lois-nounoe 07-03-2010 06:52 PM

Went to Joann's this afternoon! Spent $45 and saved $126 with the sale discounts and the coupons in the circular!
Don't forget the extra 10% on ALL purchases!!!

DebbyT 07-05-2010 05:21 AM

I went to Jo-anns and the pickins were slim. I did get 5 bundles and will hope the supply is be better the next time they go on sale. - I will be watching.

tortoisethreads 07-05-2010 06:18 AM
