Dori, why are you buying fabric in the "back" of a little store?

SheriR

WooHoo!!! My two sets will go out in today's mail! And Deb, I sent extra postage JUST IN CASE you get extra scrap strips for me. <3 Thank you for such a pretty block.

QuilterMomma lol my sweet mother took me to this little town and said "They have the best fabric store!" Ha was like walking back in time. They had one of those great big old cash registers and old clothes and such. Things that I am sure they have had for sale for over 75 years or so lolol. In the back of the store in the corner they had fabric...lol My mother was so excited that she remembered where it was that I had to buy something. Was a fun day lolol Oh and they had those old fabric measure things..you know the ones that they put the fabric in and pull it threw to measure it and then it makes a cut for you. Then you lay it down and cut it off the bolt...do you remember those. Haven't seen them in years lolol

And Lisa's are ready to be shipped as well! Wow, you girls are really getting these in early! Not due till June 30...HOWEVER...PLEASE NOTE THIS. I will be going out of the country from July 4th to July 18th. I will be swapping out all blocks and shipping by July 3rd. Please make sure your blocks are at my house by SATURDAY JUNE 30! I am absolutely firm about this (though I have been a little more generous in the past swaps) as I know no one wants to wait till July 20th for them to arrive. So.....ladies, PLEASE BE PROMPT! There is a wide selection and variation of fabric for this swap......sew excited!
