It all started by simply going to my job this morning. I only work one day a week at the quilt shop. How dangerous could that be? In my case - way too dangerous! If you technically want to be totally honest, it started last week when I brought the Star Shuffle quilt to the quilt shop. At that point my boss fell in love with it and decided to order some table runner patterns. Now I am making a sample, as well as teaching it as a class. What? How did I manage to volunteer to do this? I truly am my own worst enemy!
The tale gets even better, though...the next thing I knew I was looking through a box of fabric she was cleaning out of her sewing room. Free fabric? Well, that's even better than my employee discount! I came home with some gorgeous floral flannel as well as a mix of beautiful romantic florals. I didn't realize until I got home that now I have two more projects to work on. Well, I suppose I can feel good that I only took a couple of skinny packets out of that box of patterns and books.
On the happy side, I finished quilting the Blue and White stars today! I don't believe that I did have a plan for the binding at this point and will need to buy some fabric to finish it up - I think I am going to put one of those two color bindings on it. I haveplenty of the accent color and just need some dark blue to go with it. I am excited to finally get the quilting finished so I can baste the next one - I really am addicted, aren't I?
But, then again, I wouldn't have it any other way!
