The story of the quilt walk

Look at the beautiful layer cake

Ok I took my new project to sew night on Wednesday, took it out of the package and one of the layer cakes I needed was not there.  Ok, where the devil did I put it.  I spent the night sorting the fabric I did have and visiting. Sometimes I forget how soothing it is to play with fabric.
This layer cake is  called Spring Magic by Moda and I know it is from a couple of years ago but it is soooo pretty.  Every piece is great. (Sorry not sure why one side of the photo is dark. )
 Thursday I started out looking for the spring magic but couldn't quit when I found it. 
I just enjoyed the afternoon browsing though my fabric closet.   I am going to show you my favorite finds of the day later, but  that  yard of green fabric you can see in the center of the picture was in a bin and I had bought it at quilt walk a couple of years ago because it was such a great piece.  It is Spring Magic! Perfect for binding this new quilt. Great find in my stash.
If you can't tell from the picture I am finally going to start my Snibbles quilt plan C.  I have loved this since I first saw it but it had to take a back seat to other projects. 

Look at this great clear bin Jerilu found.  The new project fits it perfectly.  I could use more of these. 
More fabric joy later.

  3. The fabric is gorgeous! But you missed finding something in your closet, something that is a bit buried but needs to be found:
    It is not only the month for Halloween, but breast cancer awareness month!!! Treat yourself or a loved one because you care! I am just stopping by with a reminder to do your self breast exam.

  4. Fabric can be just as fun to go through as pretty patterned paper :)
