Where's the Fabric?

hello...hello...hello...hello...it's an echo not Lionel Ritchie

I have sworn myself from going on line and buying fabric. It's been a struggle- It was my New Years resolution - I have bought little bits of fabric but only to make pillowcases for people with cancer....that sounds a little melodramatic however it's true. Ann- there's so much great fabric out there and I would love it so: like this from Fort Worth Fabric Studio.

well not everything there is necessary to buy.
They do have your moda sweet moda

The gold fabric is from moda and it's called grunge- it comes in lots of colors....yum.

Sending you these photos has satisfied my fabric craving for the night. Sweet dreams!

It's Always a Mystery for Nancy Drew.

Did I ever show you the Nancy Drew quilt I made? I wanted it to look like a mystery - and all I could think of was something that uncoiled.

I was a freak for Nancy Drew. I went to the beauty salon with my mom every Saturday and sat and read a Nancy Drew while my mom had her hair teased and sprayed- it was our ritual. There was a deli downstairs that made fantastic roast beef lettuce and mayonaise sandwiches. I wouldn't even stop reading while I ate. I love that Nancy Drew.

No Buy July

Well, I'm reaching the end of what I have declared as "No-Buy July". I've done a pretty good job of not buying too. You want to know why? Remember that cabinet of quilt projects in progress and kits that I had put together for new projects. Well, I took the time to make a list of everything in that cabinet. Call me crazy, but it was eye opening. I am blessed with an abundance of things to do and make. So my goal for this month and maybe for a few more months is to work from stash. I've finished ....
