Sorting thru my scrap bins to make my coffee pot and tea cups. I have some pretty florals that will be so nice for them. Have to dig extra hard to find that silver fabric I had for my silverware. I know it is somewhere, but where.

LOL I know what you mean quiltermomma! I need to go on a fabric starvation diet for a while and use what I have too. But, I was in two quilt stores today and HAD to buy a couple things... LOL!

No but I really needed that cute irish table runner pattern for a gal that has me commissioned to make one for the silent auction! I was thrilled to find it! I also needed the machine quilting pins and the plastic clip on thingies too. Anything larger than a lap quilt and I was having to pin the inside and then move them to the outside when I was done with the center. What a pain! But, you are right, I really didn't need the fabric I got. It was kinda like it called to me.... LOL!

Sometimes that fabric yells so loud, what can you do but put it out of its misery right? I taught at the LQS on Saturday and needed a border fabric and found some on sale with an additional 20%, well had to buy it and now can finish another UFO project. All is useful.

Dang! I am gonna let you buy my fabrics with those kind of prices! LOL! We just bought 20 yards for backing for the charity quilts and 3 queen battings. It sure takes bite out of my quilting pocketbook. But, well worth it.

I doubt it, this time. He's working 12-hour shifts, 5-6 days a week right now, so he barely has time to do anything when he gets home except grab supper, a quick shower, and hop in the bed. Good for the piggy bank, but bad when it comes to having any spare time.
