    The quilt looks great all bound up. Can't wait to see it on the Bloggers Festival. I'm exhausted just reading about what's going on in the next two weeks. Looks like I might miss a bit of sleep. Ha ha

    Some nice fabrics coming. It is amazing the turn around that fabric has made in the last few years, I like it.

    Rebecca---don't show me anymore fabric. I'm dying here. Must not buy. Must finish works in progress. ;-) I have to admit---I am positively giddy over the new Anna Maria Horner line. I'm getting some of the one with the butterflies as soon as it is available.

    oohhh! what pretty fabrics! I wonder if I could convince my husband to eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for awhile so I can buy it all! Trying SO hard to use what I have, but how can I when all this great new stuff comes out! I'm excited to check out the bloggers quilt festival!
