I looked for the fabric party thread and couldn't find it bit Mr. FedEx man came at 9 am this morning with a lovely package for me!! I just ordered it 2 days ago--this website is great for quick service!

Yeah I've been in a real Autumn mood lately. Not that that is very different from my regular mood! It looked similar to a plaque I painted for our door last Autumn so it just cried out to be bought :) heh heh heh

Great fabrics, ady! Can't wait to see what you make with the red - I have some of that, and haven't a clue what I want to do with it yet!

barnbum 07-17-2008 08:19 AM

Ooooooooo I love everything in the top photo-and the pine branches in the bottom... what a LOVELY package. :D :D

Oh how lovely! I was seriously considering buying that red glitter star fabric in my next purchase, but I was concerned about the glitter (I was planning it for a quilt for my mother's queen bed). Does it seem to be getting glitter all over, or is it as nice as it looks? Tell me, tell me, tell me. :D

adyldrop 07-17-2008 09:01 AM

oh lizzy it's beautiful!! it's a soft sparkle. I thought i'd get it for that mystery quilt we may be doing here on the board. We'll see. It matches my pretty red holiday birdies nice too!

Tigerbaby1981 07-17-2008 09:26 AM

I love all the fabrics especially the first pic :) Now im heading over to the website to see what they have!

adyldrop 07-17-2008 09:28 AM

I went through the ENTIRE website the other night. 13 yards later....Heh heh heh Michael doesn't even know yet. I think I may just keep it that way too.

adyldrop 07-17-2008 11:23 AM

Oh, you sure got some pretties there!

quilter1962 07-17-2008 01:00 PM

Ady

Love your choice of fabrics - my favourites are the top five especially the hoilday themed one. I have often looked at the site, must go back & revisit :D

Tisha

adyldrop 07-17-2008 01:03 PM

Actually Tisha I was thinking of you when I picked them out!! I thought some of them might look nice with those batiks you sent me. Either a simple flying geese pattern or maybe a bear claw or maybe a little of both.....either way i will have such a pretty autumnal quilt!!

Chele 07-17-2008 01:05 PM

Oooh...so pretty! Great pickens! Don't you love that site? We should all ask for a discount, although their prices are pretty good!

Elizabeth A. 07-17-2008 02:40 PM

I'm so glad to hear that red is as wonderful as it looks! Their prices are so great, I'm hoping to place an order there soon, currently my wishlist is full and they wont let me put anymore on. :( If only they knew how much I want! :lol:

CissyQuilts 07-17-2008 02:51 PM

Oh, those are all gorgeous!!! I love the fall colors!!

another fabric addiction enabler...and we LOVE that about you LOL


ady...ohhhh pretty pretty!! can't wait to see what you make with them!! and shhh mums the word, won't tell michael a thing!! LOL

adyldrop 07-17-2008 05:37 PM

Oh goodie thank you Lisa! HE has no clue heh heh heh. Hey I have all my share for our new place. It's his 1/4 that was holding us up! And I got us the kitchen table and chairs so I think I deserved a little er um 13 yards little of fabric, right? Right? I think so :)

rein 07-17-2008 05:43 PM

Sounds like a plan ady - you don't want to let em know exactly what you are up to......... of course if he asks = don't lie ---- but there are ways to tell the truth - just not ALL of it!
NICE STUFF!

adyldrop 07-17-2008 05:52 PM

LOL I love the way you think Rein!!

reneebobby 07-18-2008 03:00 AM

Very nice fabric can't wait to see what you make out of them. I know you are busy with NANA's quilt so these will have to wait. Hey are any of these fabrics going into NANA's quilt? inquiring minds want to know.

adyldrop 07-18-2008 03:08 AM

I don't think so Renee. These ones are for me! I think I have plenty for Nana's at this point. I was just going to do it in purples and greens but on a trip to Joann's I found the peachy poppy fabric and knew it had to be included. So now all three of her favorite colors will be in there. It's really going to be ginormous!

hee hee I'm just kidding!!! I can't take credit for finding that website in the beginning as I heard about that site from someone else here who was kind enough to share the great deals!! I just like spreading the joy!!!
I agree with you Melissa that these deals can really take a chunk out of the purse strings, I need to get back into teaching again this Fall and will have my mad money back again. I also need to sell a few more of my flip flop tote bags to get more supplies!! I have three left for this season to sell before I start in the Fall to work on my next tote bag design. I will start up my flip flops again next winter season for the cruise and resort traveller's season!

sallyandtilly 07-18-2008 07:51 AM

Oh I love thousands of bolts. Got some really nice stuff there and it was very reasonable. Got together with some friends to split the shipping.

Granny Cat 07-18-2008 07:53 AM

Autum is my fav. season and that fabric just makes me want to make soup and sew....Beautiful choices...

Marcia 07-18-2008 08:43 AM
