Both of my LQSs had Super Bowl sales this weekend. The one in Annapolis had their sale on Saturday and Sunday, while the one in Easton was only on Sunday from 12-5. I wanted to stash pile, but I decided to purchase a walking foot for my machine instead. Couldn’t pass up the 25% off on that!
For the past few Super Bowl sales, I had a good time. I was in a good mood and fabrics seemed to just jump out at me. This year was not like that at all. The energy in the shop on Sunday was quite frazzled and frantic. I made a bee-line for a few fabrics and got out of there as quickly as possible. Saturday was a bit better, but my creative juices just weren't flowing very freely. I did purchase a few pieces of fabric. Some fat quarters and half yards.
Most of these are for projects that I’m already working on or about to start.
This one I bought because I absolutely loved it. When I saw it, I didn’t hesitate to pick it up. I have no idea what I will use it for, but I think I will cut one little strip from it and put it in the string quilt I’m working on right now.
What do you think of this crazy batik? I was drawn to the bright colors. This may make an appearance in my friend’s birthday quilt in April. I think it’s a bit too wild for her, but I might be able to sneak it in as binding. We’ll see.
Great stuff!!! I had to laugh when I saw the note under the batik because prior to reading it I thought, "that might be the prettiest batik I've ever seen".
ReplyDeleteLol! Really?! I wasn't sure what you'd think of it. Well, since you like it, it will surely find it's way into your quilt. :-)

ReplyDeleteFunk is right! K might not like it and you might have to fight Little K for it. lol.
