This is to document my love of and obsession with fabric and quilts! The true, guilty story of buying "just a little bit more", of shopping at thrift stores for the extra large mens shirts to use in your next quilt..and yes..even eyeing up your best friends blouse wondering if she'd notice if you "borrowed" it and just how many 2 inch strips you could get out of it!

Quiltalong update #2
Well, guess what? I decided to stick with my original fabrics for the mystery quilt. You all seemed to think they would work and I agree! I got stuck when I started thinking this HAD to be a Christmas quilt and those colors wouldn't work for that. When I let myself decide to just make a wonderful quilt, these colors were perfect! So, here they are, all cut and ready for next month!
Not the best pic to get the true colors, but it'll work. I want to go check and see what everyone else is up to, but I am going to get started on my angel!
