I've been to my friend Michelle's house for the weekend with my small group of quilting friends. We had such a wonderful time and ate so much good food! (Mich is really a gourmet cook!) We were mostly working on our 6" churn dash blocks for a group swap. All of us but Gloria procrastinated so that we still don't have them all done even after working on them all weekend.
I guess it didn't help that we took the afternoon off on Saturday to go to the quilt shop in Granbury! Oh, boy, I was so bad there! Well, I couldn't help it. A beautiful stack of the entire line of Chocolat from Three Sisters by Moda just practically jumped in to my arms! Plus, I had to get a kit for a pattern (Santa's Midnight Runner) that I loved! Of course, I needed a pattern, some applique needles and sewing machine needles.
That other blurry picture is my mess of Churn Dash blocks. I set everything back up in my sewing room when I got home and started working on them again. I have to finish them before I do anything else!
Moda trains those fabric bundles so well before they leave the factory. They teach them to whisper "buy me, you need me, you want me, you deserve me" so low that only your subconscious hears the words. Very effective however, as many of them have literally jumped into my arms without me even half trying to pick them up
ReplyDeleteI think they would have "jumped" into my arms too. They look lovely and will make a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteThat bundle of Moda chocholat is sooooooooo beutiful. I have bought some of these fabrics and are just waiting for the perfect project using them.
ReplyDeleteI love the fabric...I don't thinkg I could have left it behind.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great weekend! I also love the Chocolat collection, don't you think its one of the best they've had in awhile? Can't wait to see what you do with it! :)
