Some Recent Purchases

When I went to Fort Wayne to take the class from Jacquie we all went to a quilt shop together.
 I made a few purchases while I was there and thought I would share what I got.
 I love the Paris map fabric and the blueprint fabric too.
 My favorite though was the wavy line, gradated fabric.
 It is so cool! 


I also bought this purple fabric and some gray too.
 I never buy purple but I really liked this one. 


I also formed a new friendship with Jenny while I was there.  
She and I were talking about the typewriter fabric from Ruby Star Shining. 
 I love that fabric!  
I had no idea how large those typewriters really were 
until Jenny sent me a couple of them (thanks Jenny). 
 She also send a few scraps of the Mendocino swimming sisters.
  Isn't she just the sweetest??


 When I got back home I was perusing Fabric.com and found some Nightshade by Tula Pink.  Hmmm, that bird one needed to come and live with me.  





I'm not sure which color I like the best and check out that selvedge!
  It's worth buying some for that alone! 
 Any of you Tula Pink fans?


That's it for now my peeps. 
 I will pop back in soon. 

If you live in the US have a Happy 4th of July!!

It's GREAT to be free!!  Have a wonderful holiday!!

  1. Love TP Nightshade! She recently came to town, did an awesome talk, shared her sketch book of a new line called Salt Water, shared Birds and Bees quilts and Night shade quilts, and then we hung out afterward-she is a hoot! I love the night shade faces and made a AB birdie sling with it. Love the typewriters too. Made a pillow for a swap and was going to use them in a polaroid style block but they were 6"!
