    Default My Husband is an enabler of the worst kind!

    I've been trying to use up my stash and not buy any more fabric -- well, not too much, too often -- but when he comes across cotton fabric or good sheets at yard sales or thrift stores, he can't help himself. He "helps" me buy fabric for my stash. But he did an extra good job of finding fabric this weekend. Just take a look at what he bought for $10.00. All of it is Hawaiian print or ocean/surf type fabric, except the parrot fabric.

    2 bundles of 6" sqs.
    1 bundle of 5" sqs.
    1 bundle of 10" sqs.
    2 bundles of 7" sqs.
    3 yds. of the red print
    2 yd. of the cream print
    1 yd. of the parrot print on white

    WoW! My husband would probably just leave it, even if it were free! That is a fantastic job and you can tell him he has fans from the QB!

    I don't know yet, but I want to do something special with it. He already has a quilt and doesn't want another one, so I may put this one in our guest room. Anybody have any suggestions about a design?
    And ladies, he said to tell you "Thanks!" I also think he's pretty special......
