Darn it again! I decided to use the 2.5" candies I got a few years ago from the Birthday Swap to make a Project Linus quilt for older kids. Of course, I ran to Hobby Lobby to get something to coordinate all them together and finish the quilt. Well......I just didn't think 1 yard was enough of this really cool fabric, then I found a coordinating fabric in the clearance bin...and then I had to use my 40% off on some Northcott fabric. Needless to say, $71.00 later.........Oh well, I will use the fabric and it was all purchased with the intention of using up other fabric. I think I'm in an endless circle.......Well......I'm staying out of stores for a little bit!

Nora, When HH has Northcutt at $9.99 and 40% off, it's hard to resist. I don't like the fraying, but love the Stonehenge line. I recently bought 1 yard of the lime, but it's already in a quilt, so I'm good.

That’s gorgeous ckcowl! That green was just the right touch with those beautiful purples. Great use of stash!

Ckcowl, I really like your purple quilt! Purple is my favorite color & you’ve used all the shades very well.

Connecting threads has their wide backing on sale. my quilty friend was placing an order. She had already fulfilled the free postage purchase amount and wanted to know if I wanted to add something to her order. I looked and thought, but then said no. Small victory for me!

I went to Connecting Threads after that was posted. There is a pretty new rose fabric, but I didn't buy anything. Going through my SIL's stash is overwhelming! I don't need to bring anything else in here.

Good for you guys! I saw the sale, too, but deleted the email.
I bought a bolt of unbleached muslin, 15 yds. I am going to make quilt bags to store my quilts for moving and storage. They will likely be in storage for 4-6 mos so I took the advice of others and the web to protect them the best I can. I bought large canvas storage totes to place them in. Hopefully, this will do it. So, even with this purchase, it will whacked into right away... |
