excellent solution, can't wait to see the flimsie.
You're right I didn't have any stash for speciality fabrics. I finished the design this morning and plan to start transferring it to freezer some time next week. I'm also binding the "Attack Cat" quilt. I'm so glad that I got this far on it. There for awhile I thought it might become a ufo. And I haven't started the community quilt yet but as soon as the cat comes off the table I'll layer and baste it. |
I am starting to scare myself. DH asked me if I wanted to leave early on our day trip so we can scope out an LQS when we get to our destination. I said no without even a hesitation. On some level that is really sad on another, there is hope for me yet. lol

I totally forgot that our excursion was going to take us by one of my favorite quilt stores so I was a little mad at myself BUT I stayed the course and we didn't stop. Sigh! Unfortunately the rest of the date was an unmitigated disaster so I might have to do something that. Don't we have a hurt feelings clause?
|
Martina: While I can't site the historical precedent I'm sure that we do have that dispensation. Sorry your visit wasn't what it should have been.
|
I can understand where sometimes a hurt feelings clause might be needed. Sorry your trip wasn't good.
tk - what a great name for a quilt "attack cat". |
So I decided to put on my big-girl panties and get over myself. Woke up this morning and had a good laugh about yesterday. Now I am going to play in my room and enjoy the colorful stash that awaits me.
|
Martina: So glad your shrugging it off. When people are rude or unfeeling its almost always more about their baggage.
|
Glad you had a pair of big girl panties around for the occasion. Enjoy your stash, you deserve a play day.
Believe it or not the whole cloth actually says attack cat on duty. With a picture of an orange tabby on the front. It looks very much like my cat and I love it. I finished the binding today so I'm all about getting started on the community quilt on Wednesday. Wish me luck. |
Sounds cute tk. Will have to look up the attack cat as I have an orange tabby as well. Northcott Old Time Christmas panel has orange cat in the border which I love.

I am confessing ... I fell and fell hard.... but I am as excited for the fabrics to arrive as a child waiting for Christmas morning. It was a huge sale and top fabrics...I did purchase large enough for backings..... so maybe there is some forgiveness. In my defense I have been sewing up a storm getting ready for a art/craft show and I was feeling like I needed some fresh fabrics to motivate and keep me going. I will earn all of the money back at the show but.... it was intent in this fabric fasting was to significantly reduce my stash. I am wondering will the excitement over fresh fabrics shortly be replaced with buyers remorse??? Any one here fallen and regretted???
