Sunday Stash Report

Sunday, April 6, 2008
This week I bought fabric. I bought enough fabric my girlfriend asked if I needed an "intervention"! (crawling on floor laughing hysterically!) Yes, my best friend knows me!! In my defense, all was bought with a short term project in mind. She and I are swapping blocks made in pastels. I HAVE no pastels!! So this last week I bought fabrics for this swap, 20 different ones! 42 yards! There is enough fabric for two tops, borders, binding, backing of the swap quilts. And, I have enough pastel fabric to make a baby quilt (maybe two) for my daughter. Have I told you my daughter is pregnant?? I am going to be a GRANDMOTHER!!! I have no regrets about my purchases, I love them all.

So now I have to get sewing. Yesterday I quilted the light/dark heartstrings quilt and made the binding. Today I hope to sew it on. Tomorrow I am designated driver for sister and husband for Dr. appointments. So it will be a long day. Maybe I will have the binding on and I can sew as I wait.
