Pet: of course this is not a fall! It's a business expense (I'm assuming that you will get paid something for teaching the class!)
CK: love this! Are those 4 patch posies in the centers, or fussy cut squares?

pet, what a lovely tribute to the owner of the store to have her customers help her. Nice of you to teach a class, too.

ck, Very pretty. You are so efficient in your quilting. My purple loving daughter would love that quilt.

I took a small step off this train today. My daughter & I took some scrapbooking supplies to a resale shop for craft items. I had no idea it had fabric! I only got 2 small packs of scraps, 3 1/4 pieces, & 1 yard of Care Bear fabric. I also got 5 spools of thread-$.25 each. I spent a total of $4.50 on fabric & $1.25 on thread. I won’t discuss the knitting supplies, though! Now back on the train.

It's ok, Pet, you're helping a friend, so it may not even count. If somebody says it counts, you can use my birthday exemption because I didn't use it. I took a pledge to not buy any more fabric ever. (I'm old and have a ton and I know some will outlive me even if I make a quilt a day!)

Conchalea, I think your purchases won't count, because you got some craft supplies out of your house and that's got to have taken up more room that that little bit of fabric... The thread shouldn't count because its not added to your stash. If anybody picks on you, just share my birthday exemption with Pet.

Hi ladies. Last night in 5 hrs, all the walkways are pieced. Now I'm cutting out roofs. Added a lot of my stash/scraps to make it more scrappy. Thanks for the exemptions.

ckcowl, beautiful. I love purple.

fussy cut squares

ckcowl.......stunning purple quilt!!! Extra Kudo's that you were able to use your stash for this. It seems I never have enough of one colorway to accomplish something like this. I"d likely start it, then have to buy more to complete it. You did great at figuring the quantities needed.

petthefabric..... So kind of you to teach a class. I wouldn't count this purchase either. I wanna see this quilt when you are done...sounds awesome so far...streets and roofs..love it.

Conchalea.....good deals! Now, just turn that around and create something with your loot. I never really got into scrapbooking tho I love what others create. Just seems like so much stuff!! Lol...

Thanks to all the enablers for excusing my purchases. I COULD use a travel exemption, because I got home a week ago today from a 1700+ mile ride, in extreme heat, to Montgomery, AL. No shopping was done on my trip because I couldn’t have stuffed another thing on my Harley! I also don’t have time when riding about 300 miles a day. So I’ll claim the travel exemption & let Pet use your birthday pass, Susan. Thanks for offering it to those who can’t resist a purchase.

pet...what pattern are you using for your quilt with walkways and roofs?
