More Berlin

 I got to go over to Kailie's motor home and we sewed together. 
 I made a Midi bag and she made the Mondo bag.  
Here is my set up in her motor home.


Here we are with our completed bags!!!


I started making more Nightingale blocks using Dorothy's Journey fabric.




I thought you would like to see some of the fabric I bought while I was there.
I bought some Tula fabric.
That blue on the left was on sale so I bought enough for a back!


I began collecting some "blue" low volume fabrics for a pixilated Michigan quilt.
They will be the great lakes.


I also found some greens for the state part of the pixilated quilt.  I will also be using MSU fabrics.


I found some Coral Queen of the Sea.  Had to buy some, right?


I am saving some of these for a quilt that I will be pattern testing.  
I can't use them all but some of these will work for what I have in mind.


Some low volume restocking.  
That gray floral on the left is one of my favorites. 
 I was so happy to find it again.
With all the gray and LV quilts I seem to be making my LV gets used up.


I needed some background fabric for the quilt I am going to be pattern testing. 
 I didn't know how much we needed but the designer got back to me so Kailie drove me back to the shop I saw the perfect fabric at! 
 I got the background and those greens will be in the quilt too.


I found the cutest panel and this is the coordinating fabric.  
I will be using it as a border around the panel.  
I have a couple of baby quilt s to make and this will be one of them.  
I didn't get a photo of the panel though so you will have to wait.


Shimmer dots.  
Made my ice dragon and the priest's quilt from this line.  
I love both of these prints.


This was the second time I saw this adorable tiger fabric. 
 I took it as a sign from the universe that it needed to come home with me. 
 I want to use it for a chenille blanket back.  


I also found the extra wide backing for the patchwork flying geese quilt.
I went with the Bluebell, Minky.

I mam joining a fabric challenge over on IG.
  Beginning on July 5 I will be keeping track of my fabric usage and 
can't buy anything new until I use 30 yards. 
 Since I will be working on the nightingale quilt still, that one uses 11 yards so
 I'll be 1/3 of the way there!  

I think that catches you up!

Looks like you two had a great time. Nice fabric haul, and good luck with your willpower on buying fabric!
