A new fabric day is a good day!

I was so happy when the UPS truck pulled up last night! I wasn't expecting my Fat Quarter Shop package until tomorrow. Let's see what I got!

This is my first French General fabric purchase. Can't wait to make something with them!

Well, let me back up for a sec...remember the cat fabric I got for Annabelle's new quilt? Here it is, with a yard of Anne's (1/2 price!) Petite Maison bird fabric.


The cat fabric's pink was a bit hard to match. It's kind of a blue-based pink. So I decided to make most of the other fabrics match the yellows, oranges and reds. They are all Lakehouse.


Let's look at them one by one, shall we? Save the applause til the end, please!

I really love this one...all the colors in the quilt are here!

Happy yellow flowers

I know! The mango elephant fabric! *squeal*

Color's off, but it's a beauty

Sunshiney polka dots

This one is so cute in real life!

More of my favorite polka dots

Sweet little rosebuds

I adore this daisy print!

All together now!

This is the pattern again...

So now I'm off to do some pre-washing, pressing and cutting! Enjoy your day too!

    Wow you did good. I know you did because I have some of those fabrics, too. Great minds think alike.
