i HAD THESE LITTLE MINI CHARMS LEFTOVERS --ALL PRETTY BLUES, SO i THOUGHT WELL, WHY NOT? ONE MORE LITTLE BLOCK TO START A RAINBOW PIECE.....
You can see on that bottom row that my last two pieces of that very old Hoffman (I think) woodblock print are a bit shy of full size, but I put them in anyway...just love that print...wish I had gotten yds of it! and how often do you find yourself saying that, too??? ;--(((
I am unable to do any handwork for a few days--wrenched that thumb somehow again. It awakened me at 4:30 this morning--but----
I got to turn on our security light and watch the snowflakes falling
--------so pretty.
I hope you are snug and warm on this frigid Saturday. I am linking up with Rainbow Scrap Challenge hop on over to see all the other great projects.
hugs Julierose La Blageuse Bleu--euse....
Love that iris print. Too bad you didn't get enough. I do that all the time, too. I've never really bought more than a yard of something I really like. There are a couple of 2 yard purchases, but one of them I wondered what I was thinking. Why so much of that? Then there is the strawberry fabric I was going to use for curtains. Once I got home I thought NO. Too perky for my house. I'll use that for backing some day.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your weather. I like to watch the snowflakes fall, too, but I don't want them to accumulate. (I want my cake and I want to eat it, too.) The powers that be do not care what I want. Oh well.
It's sunny here today in Vancouver WA... a very unusual day. Usually it's overcast and rainy. Look quick at the sunshine.
Hugs
What wonderful material. It's always to fun seeing what material other quilters choose.
ReplyDeleteI have got to the point where if there is a fabric line I adore I buy several yards of it. Or a bolt depending on if it is a nice blender.
ReplyDeleteI second your comment about wishing you had bought more of a fabric, I too have done that a few times. Your new little blue blocks are cute - what size are they?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fabrics. Yes. I know what you mean about fabric regrets.
ReplyDeleteHope your thumb is well soon.
I love that print (it doesn't hurt that it's in blue ... I love blue!!).
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry that you hurt your thumb ... what a pain (literally and figuratively! ha!) ... hope it heals up quickly for you.
You can send some of that snow here ... but keep that rain/drizzle ... around these parts that could easily turn to ice. I love snow but hate ice.
the snow is snowing already--they tell us 24" - 36" with 60 mph winds here on Coast--ack! DH just got some more gas for our generator--and some food essentials, like chocolates, chips and beer !! Hahaha...hugs Julierose
DeleteHello JulieRose !
ReplyDeleteLes tissus que tu as utilisé sont très beaux !! Parfois, on se retient d'acheter plus d'un yard quand on adore un tissu et après, on regrette...
Ici, hier matin, nous avons eu de le pluie verglassante mais pas de neige en vue pour l'instant. Gros bisous et have a great sunday !
Sending hugs and WARM wishes for your thumb's rapid recovery!
ReplyDeleteHope that it warms up soon. Sounds quite wintery. Such a nice blue collection, glad you are putting all the last bits to good use.
ReplyDeleteI bought yards of that blue woodblock print. Over the years I have whittled away at it. I just checked: I have 1-7/8 plus 3 FQ in my stash.
ReplyDeleteOooh smart buy, Nann. I should have done the same. Hugs, Julierose
DeleteLove how the scraps look all together! Hope your thumb improves. Watch out for the blizzard! Sounds bad!!
ReplyDeleteLove the white cross in the blue block
ReplyDeleteOh I quite often regret not buying 'more' of certain fabrics. Occasionally, I purchase more of something that I don't use again and it just sits in the stash...that's a very rare occasion.
