On pause.
That’s what this blog will be until later this month! I’m leaving town later today for a bit and I know there will be no sewing done meanwhile. Fabric shopping might be a different story… Something that there’s been no lack of around here recently.
Even managed to nab one yard of the precious latest Heather Ross.
And while my friends and family know and love me, it’s only you, my bloggyland friends who really “get” my fabric cravings. Proof: In an astonishingly kind gesture, Amanda Jean put a little birthday gift in the mail to me.
Yes. That’s right. You are seeing what you are seeing. VW Vans!!! A fat quarter of each and I couldn’t have been more thrilled. I was all out and you all know just how hard it is to get your hands on this stuff these days! I’ve decided that I’m not cutting into until I’m making a baby quilt for MY baby. Who know when that will be, but the buses are going untouched until then! Thanks Amanda Jean!!
Meanwhile, I’m slowly, occasionally, adding a block to the wall.
Oh hi.
Back in a couple of weeks…!

Great, someone else who buys fabric in large quantities – usually I always see fat quarters in the stash pictures online…
Beautiful fabrics and enjoy your time away!
Cheers,

I just love your blog, it’s really my favorite. It’s mostly because i’m all about the fabric and you have all the stuff I have and wish I had! I love the way you group colors in your blocks, it’s always dead on. I just got the pink campers last week from my boss! Lucky you and me.
All lovely. Have a great trip.
Ooh, all those blocks are so great. I finally located some “Lush” fabric. So happy. Fabric shopping is definitely stress therapy for me. Have a great trip.

Enjoy your time away.
I hope you will have a nice time and will be waiting for your bloggy return. Love the fabrics and your blocks! Cool VW buses.
Have a great time…can’t wait to see your purchases from NY
And pick out some winners for us – lots of drama (ha ha)!
I know what you mean about the VW fabric! A friend bought me some for my birthday and I’m saving it for my someday child!
Now THERE’S some eye candy.
Thanks! I’m drooling!!

Lucky girl! And have a nice time away.
Wonderful, bright, happy fabrics! Enjoy your time away!
Hope you have a great trip, we’ll be here when you get back.
OMG that is a beautiful stack of fabric. Should you need someone to mind it for you, I’m available
Have fun! I go a little crazy when I can’t sew. I always think I’ll take up knitting for travel…great, all I need is another obsession.
have a great trip….i’m going to come back here while you are gone just to oogle your van fabric! lucky gal!!!
glad that you like the FQ’s.
have a great trip! i love your newest fabric stacks. so so pretty.
What wonderful fabrics and projects!
Its you! Your choice of fabrics reflect your personality and outlook on life. You must be a fun gal who enjoys life. Have a good time away from quilting. (Are we ever very far from our obsession?)
I just bought some of the same fabrics!
Is that the Tina Givens pink polka dot with the brown birds? Where did you find it? I’m trying to get my hands on some more.
fun fabric choices! i just had to hunt down some of those deers… Thought they’d be great little project for my cabin in the woods…
