I have new fabric in…
Kelli went over to Forest Mills Quilt Shop near Postville last week to deliver our cover quilt from American Patchwork and Quilting. Â They are the shop that is carrying the kit. Â You can check it out here if you missed it. Â The gals wanted the quilt to display in the shop with the kits and being Kelli lives closer to them than I do, she handled that job.
When she got there the gals were tidying up and reorganizing getting ready for a shop hop. Â In the process, they ended up giving Kelli this box of fabric….
and the remainder of these bolts for us to use as charity quilt.
How sweet was that?? Â The girls are always so helpful and kind…honestly, they run one of the friendliest shops I’ve even been to.
Thanks gals…
I did use a yard of fabric this week on Kelli’s little brown quilt for the backing and binding. Â If you missed that, it’s here.
Used this Week: Â 1 yard
Used year to Date:  53 yards store bought +  23 Moda fabric + 5 yards of recycled fabric…
Wow! If I had that box of fabric scraps, my family wouldn’t see me for a week. I’d be in my sewing room like a kid playing with toys after Christmas. :)
At one time a box of scraps like that would not have been exciting to me at all but in the last couple of years I’ve challenged myself to make more scrappy quilts (and believe me it’s a challenge) and now a box like that would be awesome! Lucky you!
Awesome!
