ast Friday four of the five Frankfort Girls took a little trip to Marion, OH, to shop at the Christmas Open House at Good Wives Company Quilt Shop. It was a lovely trip and we had some lovely shopping. I did not go totally crazy with my purchases, but I did get a few 1-yard cuts to enhance the stash.
Here are my purchases from Good Wives:
Good Wives specializes in reproduction fabrics, as illustrated with these lovely pieces. I have no plan for any of these fabrics; they just struck me as useful and pretty and calling to me to join my stash. I complied. *smile*
After a good lunch at an Italian restaurant in Marion called The Warehouse, we headed south toward Columbus for a stop at Red Rooster in Dublin. Again, I did not need a single inch of fabric, but I managed to find a few fat quarters that struck my fancy.
I'm thinking of making some crafty items with these pieces. I prefer not to be too specific about the particular items in the event that they become Christmas gifts!
And then I found these random 3 fat quarters and for some reason they just struck my fancy, so I brought them home, too.
I know, I'm hopeless. I've tried for so long to use from the stash. I sorta' fell off the proverbial wagon, didn't I?
You may have "fallen off the wagon", but what great fabrics you found to cushion your fall!
ReplyDeleteI see some new purses!
ReplyDeleteSandy, is that a hint? Are we drawing names? I've seen some neat change purse-type patterns online - free ones. I'm thinking I might try one to see how I do. :-)
