Boy, have I been on a solids buying spree! It all started with this simple but wonderful fat quarter bundle I won as part of the American Made Brand Blog Tour from artist Terri Stegmiller.
Any time I get my paws on a new bundle of fabric, design ideas start swirling in my head and with this bundle, I instantly envisioned a pattern using only solids. At the time, I had too many things on my plate but the idea has continued to fill my mind.
Then I found out I won a solid fat quarter bundle from Marmalade Fabrics for participating at the Purge Along with Rachel over at Stitched in Color (If you don't follow her blog already, you should!). I chose the bundle with these lovely greens. And thanks Marmalade for putting a color label on them!
I took that win as an omen that I should move the project up on the list. So to add to the pile, I did a little late night shopping and picked up some 1 yard cuts of some of the newest Kona colors. I kind of figured I would stop there.
But oh no....The Fat Quarter Shop had that 20% off sale. Look what came in the mail yesterday.
So that is it...I am done for a bit.
Really....
I also want to share this Arizona fat quarter bundle and Aurifil thread I won from Katie over at Good Golly Ginger (another great blog). She also gave me her Sand Drift pattern (very lovely!). I love this fabric line and cannot wait to make something from it. But I have to get a few other projects finished before I will allow myself to play with these.
Wasn't I supposed to be purging my fabric stash this year!?!
