I love receiving packages in the mail. They almost always have something I want or need in them. Lately the only packages arriving here have contained books for college classes... the college student in resident doesn't really want them and neither do I! LOL! But yesterday a better kind of package came... one from Connecting Threads!
I love Connecting Threads. I especially love their Essential Cotton Threads. Last weekend hubby asked if I would order some more of a color we had tried out.. Dark Honey. He loves it! So I popped some in the shopping cart and I tossed in some Natural (we always keep that one hand) and then we just played a bit... ordering several other colors including some on clearance. I think our array is lovely...
Then I decided to look through their clearance fabric. I have bought a good bit of fabric from Connecting Threads and been very pleased with it. Found a really pretty green... it is a bit brighter in real life, almost a light lime.
These swirls were so cool had to have some of each color offered.... the orange is a bit more of a yellow-orange in real life.
Then I found 2 fat eighth samplers. The first is from their fabric line called "Cheap Talk".... 16 F8ths
And then 24 from their "Sip of Summer" line... I LOVE these and they go so great with the swirlie fabrics above. I even have a quilt idea for them already.
Last but not least are 2 blocks I made for a swap. This is the Prairie Flower block from Quilters Cache. I love pink and green, so I loved these!
Mr. Mac wanted to go outside and romp in the sunshine terrorizing birdies, but I was taking photos. I had to snap a shot of him waiting patiently. Such a good quiltie boy!
