The hubs took me on road trip for a little day away----to 2 quilt shops! I know. I tell him all the time he's the best! You're not going to believe the treasures I found. If you're into 30s and NOT shopping at Ericas, what are you doing? They have other great stuff, too but you know I'm completely obsessed with repros.
I found some YLI silk thread. I'll give it a whirl on the next applique block and give you my opinion. Not to worry, I think I have one scheduled for the begining of the week, so it shouldn't be a long wait. For now, you can check out the latest fabrics that will make their way into JANE.
You have purchased great fabric's .
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.
Oh, your 30's fabrics are just so beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteYou're going to be at 50 blocks before you know it!!!
All the best!
Thanks for your kind comments Tiny & Mary Ann! 50 is just around the corner!! =)
ReplyDeleteI started counting your fabrics but gave up, they look lovely, I'm extremely envious. Silk thread is really nice for applique, I have used it on some of my applique blocks.
ReplyDeletePip,
ReplyDeleteI think the grand total was 52 Fat Quarters, 35 fat eighths, and a few pieces of yardage...I'll have to save the yardage for next post. =)
OH DEAR GOODNESS, but those fabrics are to DIE FOR!!!
ReplyDeleteBTW, if you want 2 pictures of my L-10 (Nasty Nan) block, send me an email at robich@rogers.com
I tried replying to your "comment" on my blog, but it was a "no-reply" addy.
