I've been working on odds and ends again - nothing very interesting. Let's download the pictures from my phone...in no particular order:
Isn't this the cutest face ever! He is very sweet. My neighbor's newest cat (I want to steal him). I don't know his name but I've been calling him Oliver.
Joann with Q4K is downsizing the program and downsizing the fabric she has been storing in her shed. If it is brought to the meeting it isn't going back. I may have gotten a little greedy.
I have been organizing and cutting up my scraps. That plastic box was overflowing. Now it is empty.
Yup, definitely greedy. More fabric.
Folded up in one of the larger pieces I picked up was a quilt! It's about 35 x 45 and will be the next quilt loaded on the long arm.
Stephanie gave me some of her extra quilt blocks and some of the matching fabric. I finally got around to putting it all together.
Bella being helpful. Think I should add a sign saying caution wide load?
Our Joann's closed Saturday. This was the last batch of fabrics I purchased. About $2 per yard. I think I have enough quilt backs to last a while.
Bella being helpful again.
Added the binding to the sunflower panel. I gifted it yesterday...three years isn't too long to finish something is it?
Two inch scraps. This is actually a good size tote - I need a few project ideas.
The quilt currently loaded and almost finished.
I have several large tote bags and boxes with scraps in them. This is the current one I'm working through.
And these are all the bins they are going into...wide strips, 5" strips, 2.5" strips, 2" inch strips, 1.5" strips, squares in each size, odd sizes (think hearts and triangles), extra blocks / units from previously made quilts...and more. I really need to make a few scrap quilts.

Organizing scraps and cutting them up is a never ending story at my house too. I don't blame you for taking advantage of such a great sale. "Oliver" has a darling of a face. I chuckled at "caution wide load". My cat needs a sign like that too. He's part Main Coon with long hair (of course) so when he sits all that comes to my mind is "I love big butts and I can not lie" (by Sir Mix-a-lot). ;^)
Wow, you have been busy....I was afraid something was wrong when you did not post last week. Looks like you got some nice additions to your fabric collection. I keep looking at sales, but then talk myself out of them because I am not sewing, and sometimes wonder will I ever sew again. I did make one star block today...the first thing I have made in ages on the sewing machne that was not a crumb block. Now wondering when I will get time to make another one.
