    My kids gave me a gift card to Connecting Threads for Mothers Day. (They know what I love) I had to make a trip to Hancock Fabrics to get some fusible Pellon for the bags. The lady next to me at the cutting table was buying fabric for a quilt back. I fell in love with one of her fabrics and had to buy some too. As we were checking out she suddenly asked "Are you Kelsy's Grandma" I am. Kelsey is my DGD that lives with me. As it turns out she was Kelsey's reading teacher last year. What a small world. Anyway here are some pics.

    The fabric I couln't resist. I bought 5 yards
