Group Quilt

Hello!  Group quilt is going to be starting up here pretty soon.  Our theme will be blue and brown fabrics, and we'll each pick a square to make xtimes depending on the number of people participating.  I will need a head count by Monday January 9th at the latest. 


Also, who would be interested in a fat quarter club? (an affordable one!)  I am thinking of starting a fabric club, and the more people who join, the cheaper the fabric will be.  There will be polls every month to help decide what the next month's shipment will contain. I will accept paypal, check, or cash to locals.  If you are local, we could meet up with your fabric instead of me mailing it every month.  This will be a great way for all of us to build our stashes!

I'll do some research and come up with some prices!

Fabric- The Obsession

I go through spurts with obsessions.  My current obsession: Fabric.  I keep telling myself I am building a stash, but the reality is that I'm just buying it to buy it.  *sigh*  It's not like I have a very big stash, but I don't know what I'm going to do with what I have, so what am I doing?!?!  =) 



Here is one of the potholders I already made.  I'm having a heck of a time finding more of the Pashmina by Sentimental Studios for Moda fabric.  I purchased a few fat quarters months ago, and it seems that was just before they stopped carrying it in the local stores. 





I did buy some fabric with a purpose though.  I picked up watermelon rind, and watermelon inards fabrics to make potholders with.  My husband thought I was a dork.  I think I'm a genious!  (Well, maybe not a genious...)  lol   I will post pictures as soon as I have them made.  I'm also working on a breadwarmer that you can just throw the whole loaf pan in and take with you. 


While in the fabric shop, I was reminded of the upcoming Cabin Fever Shop Hop that is put on here in Michigan in February.  For more info, go here





I'm pretty excited about doing something with these ring bases too!
