Same here, Crispy. No worries, I have plenty of purples and will use these for sure!

Just wanted to share what I'm doing with some of my purple charms. Looked around on Pinterest and came up with this idea.

I'm just matching each charm with a 5" light square making half square triangles. I'm going to use 90 of my lovely purple charms for a lap quilt.
Thanks for some great fabrics!

Just made a scrappy bear paw table runner over the weekend. I posted pics (can't link , on my phone). Quick and easy. Also just watched a tutorial by Jordan Fabrics on YouTube where she made a curved log cabin table runner that was very nice.

Faintly Artistic, I went to the 2 sites that you have listed. You do beautiful work and it was so hard to leave! Just had to let you know you have another fan.
