Christmas Shopping

My husband kept asking what I wanted for Christmas. I kept replying, 'A trip to the fabric store BY MYSELF.' He didn't think I was serious.

My inlaws live only a half hour from the Fabric Shack, so I had a ton of fun spending a good part of a day gathering bolts of fabric for lots of projects.


My month is March, and I'm one to plan everything to the nth degree, and early. [I think I'm done twitching over the thought of letting 11/12 of my quilt out of my hands!] Plus they had a coupon for 15% off, so see how much I saved?


A lucky find, Moda's 1974 was in their clearance loft. I found some great Michael Miller dots, lovely Nicey Jane, and Kona solids (that black-looking one is actually coal). I can't wait!
