Quilters talk about hoarding certain lines of fabric, of being afraid to use it up, of prowling ebay to complete their collections.......I didn't get it until now.
I seriously covet Get a Clue With Nancy Drew, even if I have already made two quilts from it. I've got a charm pack left for my blog hop project, and some leftover bits from the quilt backing and binding. But I wanted just a bit more. Greenbaum's called two days ago to let me know that it had finally come in and by the time I made it in there today, most of it was gone.
I did get the two prints I was hoping for, a half yard of each. I've got plans for both. And I will be keeping track of every last scrap. Because it's that special.
I also stopped at Craft Warehouse and Joann's to pick up some more green for the border of the turtle quilt. And a bunch of Wool-Ease which was on sale for the best price I've seen in ages. I need to cast on something that I can knit with other people in the room and I'm envisioning these cute little striped pink stocking caps for the NICU.
