Goodies!

It was quite the package day today - diapers for Sam, the comic book backer boards I ordered to use for fabric organization, and my Connecting Threads order.  I've been really good the past few months, not buying much of any stash and only a few bits and pieces for upcoming projects (and everything on sale).  So I was very excited to open up the box and find:

Bed & Breakfast 2.5" strips (for The Farmer's Wife quilt)
Golden Afternoon 2.5" strips - just because I've wanted them or a long time
Christmas 5" Squares
Quilters Candy Solid 2.5" Strips (to use in a Paintbox Quilt a la Oh Fransson!)
And this quilt kit - it's a crib size, but I thought it was cute.  It will go in the guest room.

And some progress shots - I can't divulge any details of this project, but you can see I've made 4 of these particular nine-patches.

    Small world...I too am waiting on a package from Connecting Threads ;)
    Their catalogs are always so much fun.

    Those nine patch blocks are really Adorable!
    Love the color combo you chose for them.

  2. Thank you for the little fabric show...lately I have been so bogged down by life in general. It is good to "quilt" through blogland instead. Now I am off to see what quilt your 5" squares will make!!
