It's suppose to be in the 100's today and I'll be working on a Christmas quilt. Some how that just sounds wrong. But that what September is like in Southern Calif.
I've been doing well not buying unless I need it for a project. So my yardage in went right back out. Love it when that happens. I have three quilts at my quilter so I can count out the tops..
Added since last report: 6 Yards

Holding fast to being on the positive side. So if you are only interested in fabric you can stop now and head back over to Judy's for more stash reports.
So what else have I been up too:
We lucked into some old iron beds.

I know, I have a weird sense of humor .... but Sorting Beds sounds like the name of a rock band .... I'm curious, do you have a plan for the beds?
ReplyDeleteCongrats on staying positive.
Your iron beds will look perfect with quilts on them. You can never have too many Halloween quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love the Hutch! and I, too, am curious as to what you plan on doing with the beds. I'm in SoCal too and the 100 degree weather is keeping me in the house and out of quilt shops! :) Stay cool!
