One Step Closer

I had a coupon and an opportunity to go to JoAnne's ALONE. Do you think I passed it up? Heck no! When I pick fabric I sit and stare at it for a long time. Then I hold a bunch of it together, see if it seems right together. Then, I put some back, ask innocent bystanders their opinions, and stare some more. That isn't very fun for anyone who has to come with me. Just ask my kids. So going by myself was an absolute delight!
I really wanted to go see what the quilt stores had, but right now $8+ a yard is NOT in my budget! So I just avoided those stores altogether. But, I was very very pleased with what I found at JoAnne's. And I'm very excited to get started on the quilt for the little man baking inside of me. He'll be done soon, so I need to get my act together.
Here are the fabrics that won a chance to go home with me:Hopefully, they will be transformed into a quilt in the near future. But I've misplaced my magic wand, so chances are it will be done about 24 hours before I give birth.See, No Wand.

I want to have you make some quilts for me! I am serious! I will pay you for it! The quilts that you make are BEAUTIFUL!

Sorry Bec! My quilting skills are currently not for sale. I've got too many of my own projects going and barely enough time to finish them before the baby comes. Don't worry, some day I'll do it, just not in the near future.

I can't wait to see what you create for the little man!

Cute fabric!! I can't wait to see the finished product! I had to take Spencer to JoAnne's a few weeks ago and it was plain torture for him. Poor kid!
